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.

Spray paint should be taxed high enough to pay the cleanup of all the ugly tags.
I like graffiti. Every city I visit without it feels soulless.
I also like nice graffiti but even those end up covered by a bunch of ugly and lazy tags. As for cities being soulless without it, I guess you never went to a city that is not a glorified parking lot.
Eh, I don't mind tasteful graffiti but when it's literally just a dozen tags with nothing artistic about it then that's pretty shit.
The tags themselves are artistic, it's
A) Modern calligraphy
And
B) A statement of existence, an "I was here," which is a super common basis for art.
There's an entire culture behind it too.
What Botox does to a mfer
I still have one in a closet since about 5 years. One day it will rust through, explode and turn everything in my closet white. But maybe I'll need it again 😅
One can (well, two, one for the outline) will get you two throws max, maybe like 10 tags with an NY fat.
And they do make smaller cans, assuming Krylon ShortCuts still exist, and there's always the MTN pocket cans, but those are available in less colors. Still female cans though so no adapter needed!
