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.

MODERATORS
The wheel (for transportation) is really a concomitant of stable roads existing. Really wheels only work on flat, paved surfaces. The "invention" of the wheel isn't the stroke of genius that pop culture likes to portray it as. It's just something that follows from having the right environment. The Romans for instance built and maintained widespread road networks throughout Europe to quickly move troops to the front lines. It turns out that those roads also were a tremendous boon for traders and travellers using carts.
Comic's still funny though.
