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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Never read bunnicula, but when I was a kid I was a late reader, especially compared to my family. My mom was 3 when she learned, my brother was 4. I was 7. But once I picked it up, I loved reading, and my neighborhood had a little local library. By the time I was 9 I had gone through all the books in the kids section, and the librarian let me go pick whatever I wanted from the grown up section. I went from reading to stave off boredom to devouring books, because I felt like I had choice. I could choose whatever stories I wanted to read. Like a fucking nerd I chose Shakespeare and a book on mythology, but still. It was the most incredible feeling.
