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.

MODERATORS
Either she's his girlfriend and he's just a complete asshole, or she's his girlfriend and he's being a sarcastic jackass(this is the only "good" scenario), or she's a clingy type who calls herself his girlfriend even though he's not into her at all and he's either set boundaries she ignores or he just doesn't really care if she invades his space like that.
No matter what, this comic sucks.
Maybe their relationship is fueled, in part, by sarcasm and thats just part of their dynamic. By being sarcastic, he's actually demonstrated that his battery has recharged.
Except, they included his uncharged battery in most frames.
This is the case it was badly conveyed.
He's smiling in the last panel.
Good take. That’s the only way I can get any wholesomeness out of the comic. Otherwise it just feels awkward and bad!
Yeah, "subverting" basic human love is just depressing
It's called dark humor. Carful or you might drown in your own tears.
Dark humor has to actually be funny.
Dark humor like any humor is subjective. Funny to one, not to the other.
Yeah, I'd downvote it, but it is currently showing 666 net votes, and that captures how I feel about it even better.
