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.

Had to check. It looks like the comic actually only ceased production last year after the passing of the (second) artist.
Chris Browne took on Hägar after his father Dik - who drew the linked comic - died, but today I learned that Chris died last year.
As an extra kicker, I also learned that his brother Chance died a couple of months back. He didn't draw Hägar but had taken on another of their father's strips, Hi and Lois.
My denial about getting older can only take so much of this.
Like when i learned 3 days ago that Steve Albini died 3 weeks ago ( Heart Attack ),10 days before their ( Shellac ) last album ( To All Trains ) came out.
RIP everyone
