A cartoon illustration of the grim reaper watering flowers in his front yard while the next door neighbor looks over worriedly as he picks up his morning newspaper. The caption underneath reads "He had never not seen the new neighbor wearing his costume and it was beginning to unsettle Davis."

I thought the death was going to be the death of print media newspapers, until I read the caption.

Has a bit of a grim fandango feel to it. Also that gives it an extra later of creep as 'sprouting' someone (making flowers grow on them) is the equivalent of killing someone in that universe

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.
