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.

I wondered whether escaping would work, but not enough to test it.

I actually like the escaping method better because

My time spent with git has resulted in me seeing lots of editors argue about whether whitespace at the end of a line is acceptable, but I prefer to do without
I post almost exclusively from my mobile device, so two spaces create a full stop where I don't want one
I'm accustomed to escaping newlines from my shell scripting experience, so it looks right to me
It reminds me of xkcd, which I have frequently enjoyed

Regardless of which method any of us use, thank you for the information!
