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.

It's so that people have a harder time saying "yes officer it was a Toyota Camry" unless they're familiar with the body style enough to know it isn't a Honda Accord without the markings. "A truck" is less descriptive than "A black Dodge Ram 1500."
Look, avoiding Undercovers is half the reason I can tell a car by it's headlights or taillights, so sorry Nissan Altima with paper plates, I can tell you're a 2008 from 150m, day or night.
Not everyone is as adept. (And that Altima was probably recently purchased used, tbf lol).
Also I've seen a ~25yo undercover minivan with the paint half worn to primer in my area, that trick is less reliable here since 2010ish.
