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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Do you know who's the artist?
Sadly, no. That’s solely @beep@lemmus.org’s fault. Had they not cropped the attribution, I could tell you where to find more works from this artist, or who they are.
So, I used reverse image search to look it up - OP is not at fault for cutting off the image. The OC was made like that, and posted to Reddit, as far as I can tell

Seems like it still would have been trivial to include the creator's username in a comment or something. Given OP's extensive history of posting images with the creator's watermark cropped out (for which they've been called out numerous times), I don't think we need to give them the benefit of the doubt here.
Imo, it is the responsibility of the person sharing something to ALWAYS credit thr artist, whether the credit is integrated or otherwise.
AND there should be consequences for not doing so.
