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.

Umm I was reading the comments, does nobody else go into the page's HTML and delete the "pay now" popup. Usually deleting the code works for me. Let me know if you have a way that works for you!
Generally the first thing I try is to hit ESC to stop a paywall script from running.
If that doesn't work I try pressing ctrl-A ctrl-C to copy the whole page as soon as I see something. This works on pages that load and are then hidden by a script, but you have to be quick. Then I open Notepad and paste. If this doesn't work I'll either try it once more and see if I can be faster or just say screw it, if they want to hide their content that bad I don't need it. If it's important to me google will usually find the same news or info somewhere else.
