Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I mean, I don't think that Devils Panties is intended to be uproariously funny. Like, comics don't have to just be a "funny" art form.
That being said, I like early Calvin & Hobbes for humor, and there's !calvinandhobbes@lemmy.world. Bill Watterson got kind of...grim and not funny towards the end, but the earlier stuff is great, IMHO.
Not funny is fine. But the last few ones have been... boring.
They're not boring, they're realistic
That's not mutually exclusive.
I had a year or so that I had realistic mundane dreams. Just doing my chores, which I then had to do again when I woke up. Worse than any nightmare.
