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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Do you work for Webtoons or something? Because this is free on the actual author's site.

Does Webtoons even get permission to repost this shit for money?
I am the actual author. I post my work in many places. All of them are free to read.
Webtoons is where I have the most subscribers and is the most popular platform, so I tend to direct people there. I also get a (tiny) share of the revenue from the ads they place below my comics, which is a nice little bonus. But I'm happy for people to read wherever - I just like to share my work.
Oh, cool! It's a great comic! I've always found it suspicious that Webtoons links are paywalled while authors have free access on their own sites, but I guess that makes sense if it works for the artists.
They aren't paywalled, though? All the links are viewable freely as far as I can tell.
Any time I go to Webtoons on my phone I see this. I guess maybe it's technically free? I don't really trust any app that tries to force itself on me though. Usually they want something, whether that be pushing ads or selling data.
Ah, that is annoying! You can still view in the browser, but the pop-up is definitely bothersome. And of course you can just go to crookedgoat.ca as you indicated, and be free of ads, trackers, and any other corporate nonsense.
