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.

FWIW I checked the comic at SBMC and Im not sure what extra text they are talking about unless the author shared said extra text on a social network, but I don't see anything you missed from your source.
If you click on the comic (at least on mobile) the extra text comes up (on the site). I think there is some for every comic.
I did though. I do not see said text.
You gotta long press on the picture
Oh so its the unfurl description. Interesting, but maybe a little obtuse for most users to find.
Also doesnt show up on mine in the menu or on the share screen. Just when it unfurls in a chat.
But I use Fennec and /e/OS so likely a user experience difference.
You get to be one of todays lucky 10 thousand!
It's one of those holdover things a good number internet old webcomics do, including the linked XKCD. It's one of those things that's effortless with your traditional mouse-keyboard desktop setup, because you hover your mouse and magically the alt-text appears without having to really find it. But for new users in the touch screen era? As you say, yeah, definitely obtuse. :)
