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.

Animals that demonstrate an ability to communicate abstract concepts indirectly and symbolically are the sapient ones.
There are many non-sapient specimens among the ironically-named "homo sapiens" species. However, if one wishes to be cautious one must assume that all members of a species where some individuals have demonstrated sapience may nevertheless possess latent sapience.
It can be very frustrating though, because so many of them absolutely deserve to be food -- especially the "wealthy" ones.
