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 mean an annular eclipse is gorgeous
And safe to look at, while in totality....
Outside of totality, meh, sun looks about the same except the shape...
Total and annular are two different things, save your eyes 🙂
Ah, you are right, wasn't thinking. Never seen one myself, though totality was something to behold, but once even a smidge of sunlight was directly visible, seemed pretty boring to me, I would guess an annular would be similarly be pretty boring, sure an unusual shape but roughly similar to just normal sunlight...
It's true that annular may not be as exciting as total, but still pretty neat. If either one ever happens close enough for you to see I hope you can make it! Totally worth it.
