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.

Yeah idk. There is a Sherlock Holmes show called "Elementary" but that doesnt really make any sense here. Weird comic.
Sherlock Holmes' "catchphrase", for lack of a better term, is "Elementary, my dear Watson", which is parodied in this comic.
Fun fact though, Sherlock never actually says these phrases together. He does say "Elementary" and "... my dear Watson" but not together.
But really this is just an "akchtually" comment
To akchtually your akchtually... He doesn't say it in the original books, but he has been saying in secondary sources for over a 100 years. So I don't think people are wrong in saying that it's his catch phrase.
I'd like to think of an akchtually to your akchtually but I actually can't think of anything to rebut with.
Everybody knows Sherlock Holmes, nobody knows anything about Sherlock Holmes... 🙄
