- 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).

It's your fault you didn't buy real estate to live in while it was cheap back when you were 3 years old.

The non-fan-edit version was originally posted on !gothindustrial@lemmy.world
Writhe and Shine makes fun of the alternative underground scene from the inside and shows us that no matter how much black we wear or how moody we seem, we can still laugh at ourselves. Running off and on since 1998, it has been compared to The Addams Family and Cheers. The series follows a group of friends that work at and run The Bastille, the only Goth club in the historic and iconic city of New Orleans.
This strip is from the mid-2010s, you can read their comic strip archive for more. Looks like the artist/writer eventually shifted to other work, though.

- took the 1x4 version and turned it into 2x2, adding background, title, and URL
- text change from "You're one of a kind. Will you be mine?" to "Will you be mine? You're one of a kind." The idea is I want the "one of a kind" part to be last so it's salient and thus still in mind at the end so the joke lands better.
- move the word balloon "I know" in panel 3 a bit closer to the top word balloon in that panel. It was a little too easy to read "I know" AFTER the bottom word balloon, which didn't make much sense.
