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.

Counterpoint, there are also games you tried and HATED as a kid, that you might now like as an adult.
As I kid I had a lot less need for quality story telling, and roll play, probably a lot less interest in gardening simulators too. There's probably lots of stuff you thought you didn't like.
Roll play? Role playing as a roll?
Katamari
Marble Madness?
Addicted to Craps, I gotta throw a couple each day, butt when I think about it - it's really money down the toilet.
My version of this is 4X games. I always was intrigued by them as a kid, but I wasn't nearly patient enough or willing to put in the time to understand them. As an adult I've finally been able to enjoy them.
I'm the opposite. I played the hell out of 4x in college and early adulthood. Now, I just don't have the time or patience for them.
I remember hating Baroque on ps2 as a kid, but then I grew up, played Spelunky and finally got it what roguelites were doing, went back and liked it.
I tried to get my nephews into pokemon nintendo games when they were like 10. Failed bad because "too much reading" and went back to Roblox...
Kids today something something attention spans what with the social media grumble grumble back when I was that age, dammit.
