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.

I have always thought those little warhammer figuers look pretty fun to paint, and im sure theres like interesting backstory behind them too.
That's how it starts... A year later and you are starting your fifth army and you haven't finished painting the first one
Next stage is you’re writing your own backstory that somehow combines minis from different factions and games even.
You take care to walk a fine line to keep it cohesive and relatable.
You invest time and effort to bring it to life on the table.
You even spend hours play testing the rules and stats you wrote, with an eye on keeping things balanced.
“Nah man, let’s just play 40k as is, I mean your stuff seems weird”.
