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.

There are habitable planets orbiting about one in five stars. So a few hundred habitable worlds in that range. Why do none of them transmit?
If I'm not mistaken, the habitable means posibility of liquid water. I'm not aware of any of those planets to be truly able to host a life as we know it. It's always either high radiation, toxic atmosphere, tidal lock, or dozens of other things...
And how would they even transmit? We can barely talk to Voyager that's basically on our own front lawn. A planet out-shouting it's own star seems a bit sci-fi.
