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.

Here's a joke for you: A man is ROWING down a RIVER. He gets to the waterfall, and when the goes over the edge he yells "RADIO!!!"

So did I just disrespect you and waste your time, or do I get a pass because it's so random and it subverts your expectations of how a joke could be structured?

Being weird, or quirky, or SuBveRtInG eXpEcTatiONs doesn't give anybody a pass for their creations not working on a basic level.

You entertained me, because of the context. If you were able to draw it and contextualize it maybe setting it in a well known fictional universe, mixing it with themes of the wonder of a coming of age, the machination of the industry, the generational gap and a sense of rythm in the way the narration is paced and represented, I would probably find it brilliant.
