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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.

so for anyone else confused...
"Content not viewable in your region"?
Now I'm more confused.
There you go. This censorship is getting ridiculous. Next time people born in Fucking, Austria won't be able to explain where they are from.
Chuds not being able to post the N word for a day — challenge level: impossible.
Like, we all knew what the book was, but it was still SO important for you to post this. It was life or death for you. Not saying slurs physically makes your skin crawl. You cannot help but be a racist sack of shit.
I would personally send you to the gulag.
As an Australian who has never studied Agatha Christie in any context, I literally had no clue what the censored word was. I was, and am, appreciative of the context that was provided by other commenters. Be careful when you make blanket statements like “we all knew what the book was”, because you’ll almost always be confidently incorrect.
Same here. I didn't know this book exists.
You are speaking to a tankie. They are confidently incorrect pretty much by definition.
Be quiet, nerd. Nobody needs your anecdote about how stressed you were not knowing the specific slur.
I’m a nerd for… not knowing that a book exists? Weird, but okay I guess.

the screenshot is hosted on imgur.com, do you generally have problems with that one? it was just a screenshot of mentioned wiki article.
Got you. Imgur is now completely blocked in the UK after the "Online Safety Act", "to protect the children", because maybe one of the pictures hosted on it is some boobs or something?
I had no idea. Time to search for replacement.
I'd love a replacement for the "Online Safety Act" :)
Temporary solution to this is vpn...
