Wait, why isn’t the author’s name scrubbed off? We’re giving them credit now??? (/s, just in case)
I saw that there was some discussion about this the other day, but this community moves so fast that I didn’t catch all the details.
My unsolicited 0.02 is that crediting in the title or body seems reasonable whenever the artist’s signature/watermark isn’t present.
Yeah it’s perfectly fine. And just leaving the signature is too. The discussion is mostly around that one troll actively removing signatures when they exist because “that’s an ad”.
Ah, that makes sense.
I hadn’t read the discussion but saw there was one and had wondered why anyone would want to remove an artist’s signature. That’s crazy. What a weird world view.
I would only remove when it’s one of those cases where the artist is a tremendous piece of shit, but the comic or edited meme is good
I don’t think I’d even post the comic of someone I knew to be terrible.
I’m glad it has the name of the comic and the artist visible. I just went to check out some of the comics, they are so cute!
Depending on the situation, sure. If the comic doesn’t have a signature in the margins already (like XKCD) then credit in the title/body. If the signature is in the margins, and cropped out, then that’s bad form. Comics are often re-shared and the title/body doesn’t always come along.
After you remove the signature from the comics, credit is going to quickly get lost as the re-posts happen.
Lower right corner has the signature. This is pre www.
Wow, a comic dated pre World War Wan
They clearly meant What Women Want, the historically successful movie starring Will Smith as a relationship consultant who drives around the wasteland in his V8 Interceptor.
What did Wan do that we went to a World Word with him?

That’s numberwang!
Can we reverse the board and play wangernumb?
Thank you for posting these.
I’m happy to!
Death by Snu Snu.
Wow, this looks like it’s from around the '70s! I wonder what magazine/newspaper it was featured in.
It was apparently a Hungarian comic that ran from 1957-1970. I only recently encountered it for the first time.
I have never heard of that before (I was born way after that, though). I wonder how such niche things get to lemmy users sometimes.
With the way enshittification is going, mining the past for forgotten gems will become more beneficial than ever.
Feels/vibes like la petite taupe
Jucika is my spirit animal.
Now that’s a weird alteration of the name Jessica. Or is this where Jessica came from?
It’s a way to spell Jessica.
It’s a real tragedeigh
It’s a petname for Judith in Hungarian.
That’s pretty wild 😉
Hungary mentioned, bojler eladó. Actually i discovered these comics cause of my pakistani friend even tho im hungarian, theyre pretty fun
Túl sok itt a magyar.
cursive cyrilic is funny as hell
Hungarian doesn’t use Cyrillic, but you’re right.
congratulations to hungarians lol, not an easy feat.

Funny, you say?
wheeze 🤣
Not Cyrillic, it says “és a szapora szobanövény"
Sounds mildly obscene.
I don’t understand.
The plant grew so much it turned her house into a jungle and made her feral.
And that is the author’s barely disguised fetish. Death by snu snu
He gave her a plant and she likes it wayy more than she likes him
Timeless
I’m really enjoying these!
good for them! ❤️
