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.

Standing, she'd be about the height of one of the cops legs. I get that some people are short, just has an awkward read visually (fascists can be stopped, cops can be hurt, they're not invincible or superior).
Ah yes, the common raciat stereotype of black people being... uh, short
I didn't say anything about a stereotype being applied, except to the fascist imagery (that they're ubermensch/strong).
I'm starting to think people aren't able to read what I'm saying. No wonder you guys are peacefully accepting the new regime as if it's all powerful. You all seem defeated and trapped in your ideological mindsets.
Good luck.
That's not what you said. You said the black lady was like "a dwarf or a troll". Maybe the problem is you being able to read what you wrote?
I never mentioned her race. I actually have a heavy redlight filter on my phone and thought it was a depiction of a Mexican woman. I said something about her height, not her race
But I agree she is depicted as super humanly short, or rather the cop is being depicted as super humanly tall - as an untouchable ubermensch.
Yeah... You know, there is something being said here, but you're completely missing the point.
Let me put it another way; the cop is Goliath, symbolically. A big, giant, well armed brute that beats down on a minority. Get it now?
lol I see what you are saying, but I think you're being critical of the artistic liberties taken when drawing this
