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.

This reminds me of my opinion that we need to find a way to fine dead people who die before they complete contracts they've signed. If you agree to work for my company for x amount of years your death shouldn't allow you to go back on your word.
Make their kids take it up? Obvious solution.
Next kin takes up debts etc. Why not contracts too?
Next of kin don't take up debts unless they're co-signatories. The assets of the deceased generally go to the creditors first, yes, nullifying any inheritance the next of kin may have been in line for, but the inheritance doesn't then run in reverse if those assets aren't enough to cover the debt.
That won't stop the creditor from trying any trick in the book to get the next of kin to pay, including lying about it, but I'd like to hear of a jurisdiction where the next of kin are legally liable.
