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.

One thing I've noticed is that at some point they stopped making TV shows and movies set in the past and went to making everything science fiction and fantasy.
I didn't learn about vaudeville or butter churns or knights in school, I saw them in media.
There's still a ton of historical media too. From my past three months of watching:
Gonna add The Last Kingdom to this list. Super cool show about the Viking invasion of England in the ~~11th~~ 9th century, it's got like 5 seasons and a movie to cap it off. Highly recommended.
Edit: I'm a dummy 🤪
At the risk of being cliché, I recommend the original books by Bernard Cornwell!
