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'm at the point where what is 'it' is weird to me, but it isn't scary yet.
What amazes me is how much stuff I was "with" is still relevant to kids these days. I'm amazed at the staying power of Source Filmmaker for example.
the smaller and more niche your "it" was, the more popular it is today, since marketers need new fuel to sell products and will happily put a spotlight on counterculture for a quick buck
There's a small business in my area, they sell skateboards, weed stickers, tye dye and edgy slogan shirts, those studded bracelets and belts, etc. Their tagline under their name on their sign is "[the area's] counter-culture outlet." And that concept has just always amused me. Get your mass-manufactured globally sourced counter-culture here goods and apparel here at competitive retail prices.
