Hello fellow Cyanide and Happiness fans!
About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net) and a an extra or two randoms.
Cyanide & Happiness (C&H) is a webcomic created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Melvin. The comic has been running since 2005 and is published on the website explosm.net along with animated shorts in the same style. Matt Melvin left C&H in 2014, and several other people have contributed to the comic and to the animated shorts… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide_%26_Happiness
Hope you enjoy and feel free to contribute to the community with art, media, cool stuff about the authors, tattoos, toys and anything else, as long it’s Cyanide and Happiness related!

I'm assuming this is trying really hard to be edgy about the copyright expiry without actually being edgy. Am I off the mark here?
The Mickey Mouse Club was an actual thing. Fighting in the back of the comic, we see Britney Spears in what I think is a famous outfit from some music video. She was famously on the Mickey Mouse Club. Whoever she is beating up in the comic is probably another famous member that I am just unfamiliar with.
The joke here is basically "What if this happy fun time show was actually secretly like the novel/film Fight Club?"
Disney has made and destroyed many pop stars. Miley Cyrus explained in an interview that she had to act as crazy as possible for Disney to stop forcing her to tour as Hannah Montana.
iirc Britney Spears had some rough days too.
Dang I totally forgot about her MMC days
