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.

I'm just assuming that the viewpoint switches sides at that point, but that's a confusing choice to make. Perhaps the artist thought they were following the 180 rule by keeping each character to the same side of the frame, but in this case that would be a bad interpretation of the rule. Here the entire premise requires that they walk past each other, so the viewer expects them to switch sides of the frame and is disoriented when they didn't. Or maybe the artist actually intended that they nonsensically switch directions after bumping each other? I suppose we can only guess.
