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.

Then it's not a comic, it's just the word "minimum" written in calligraphy.
And nothing of substance would be lost, that's the point.
"This ~~meeting~~ comic could've been an ~~e-mail~~ image."
That's true of most comics, really. Most of them could have been books. Or lines in a joke book. Transitioning to a visual medium is simply one method of telling jokes. You don't have to do anything any specific way at all.
But without context that makes no sense unless you're really into calligraphy

Put a pen there or make it clear that it's paper. These are imho quite obvious.
So you don't see the characters, you don't see the misunderstanding that it isn't a fence, and you don't find out that he is doing calligraphy. Do know it says 'minimum' though.
That doesn't really seem like a comic strip to me
