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.

Our Light makes it from the giant fusion explosion to us on the mud ball in 8 minutes. And 5.5 hours to the poor butt of a joke that is Pluto. So ... 4 years you say....
You take that back!
Actually, it takes light between 10,000 to 170,000 years to reach the surface of the sun. It bounces around in there for a long time since all the fusion actually happens in the core.
Yeah my time measurements were from the edge of explosion to here (on the dirt ball). As the interior time measurement is well outside understandable time frames. Which is what my comment was trying to frame.
