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.

Technically, you still can determine what is behind the door and therefore win, because this is a universe where doors cant be opened and not "a universe where doors cannot be destroyed or circumvented by cutting a hole in the adjacent wall"
Here's an interesting question: is this a universe where there is some metaphysical entity that doesn't allow any object that fulfills the role of a door to be opened, or is it a universe where random chance causes every door to become jammed or otherwise malfunction after being installed?
If we take Everett's Many Worlds Interpretation to its extreme, is there a universe where doors are useless because the stars align in such a way that doors just coincidentally jam for any number of reasons the moment they're installed?
Is there a universe where every coin flip ends up being tails? Is there a religion based around this observation? What if we exist in such a universe? What thing do we take for granted which would be considered a random occurrence in another universe?
Newton would have a totally different biography if he didn't happen to live in the one universe in which apples each and everything fall down and never up.
