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.

maxipads were invented for wounds like this. the menstrual solution came after the war.
The fact that I get to learn cool facts while commenting on memes is a reason why I love the Internet.
I read someone say that (here or on Reddit) when there was post that Russian soldiers were given tampons to use to stop bleeding.
I searched for history of tampons and that looked like the person was just bullshitting. I think OP probably saw the same comment as me.
Recently saw an army training video and they used tampons as tinder for campfires. I wonder when they started doing that.
