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.

He pretty much HAS to sell for lower to actually have a market - who buys from an illicit source if it's not even cheaper than through the normal channels?
if he tried to sell through normal channels, he'd probably get slapped with patent infringements or similar legal bs.
Patent infringement, yes. But there's also a gazillion quality control rules and forms and FDA submissions to manufacture drugs licitly. We know Walter White can control the quality, but does he have the patience to file the paperwork?
You know, I’m almost 40, a big reader, and have seen and heard “illicit” my whole life.
I think this is the first time I’ve ever seen anyone use licit, and that’s fascinating.
On season 1, no, he run away from inspection all the time.
On season 3, no, he knows where the inspector lives, and the inspector runs away from him all the time.
On season 7, no, but he runs the FDA and makes them add bullshit requirements to impede big-pharma all the time.
