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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's not seeing through the box, it's a Discworld-style future prediction paradox.
She already knows that when she get there, there will be nothing in the mailbox.
But she has to check anyway, because if she doesn't, causality is broken and she shouldn't be able to know it will be empty, since checking inside is not in her future anymore.
According to Discworld rules, it won't break the universe or anything but it'll give her a massive headache.
