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 used to think following the news would help me be prepared. It mostly has not.
Yeah. Once the CDC helped me prepare for Zombies, I realized I could relax about the news.
May 16th 2011... Pretty sure this is an April fools joke, and like everything in government it was a month and a half late.
Yeah. It's a joke publicity stunt.
But it's also useful - the preparations given for zombie apocalypse are actually pragmatic preparations that can help during severe weather, supply chain disruption, pandemic, etc.
I like to share the zombie article, in particular, because, while it's silly, the advice in it is reasonable and useful to almost anyone.
