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.

Somehow Caesar misheard "grando" as "ave", since they're of course speaking Latin and not English.
If you look closely it turns out they're not real Romans at all, just drawings!
Ce ne sont pas des Romains.
Romanes eunt domus
People called Romanes they go the house?
I think he tried using a dictionary or translation tool, and failed to consider that "eunt" is the indicative form of "eō"/"īre" (to go) and not the imperative form. So he's stating that Romans go home (with extraordinarily poor grammar, mind you), when he probably means to tell Romans to go home ("Romani ite domum!")
Edit: Apparently this is a Life of Brian reference. I am a fool
