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.

I don't get it
Men on dating apps known for posing with fish. This long running web comic with swords. Thus sword fish gag :)
Thank you. I've never used a dating app and I was very confused.
Take care out there, flying squid. You're the ultimate catch for a fish guy's tinder profile.
I don't know that my wife would be into me looking for fishermen on Tinder. I don't even think she'd be up for me looking for them on Grindr.
What, why? Is this some fad?
enough of a thing to have articles on it. Though I'd guess it's an American thing.
Huh, I always figured it's because it's one of the masculine-conforming reasons to have a friend take a nice photo of just one guy. Single guys with plenty of friends go out and do stuff together, but you don't take well-lit, posed photos by yourself normally. You might take a group shot, but then you risk looking small or ugly next to a more attractive friend. A posed photo of a guy by himself looking good is going to look like it was taken by a significant other.
It also says "I like to fish, and when we are in a relationship, I expect to continue to go fishing with my friends."
Ah, appealing to the "i can feed you" instincts.
