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.

White Jesus predates the '40s by quite a long way. European Christians have been depicting him that way for centuries. I'm pretty sure Americans had a white Jesus before then as well.
Sadly, it's hard to find accurate depictions of Jesus in the western world.
i read that it was Da Vinci era likely due to instruction from the popes. some say Da Vinci's depictions of Jesus were self portraits.
