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.

yes, according to researchers, they did meet homo sapiens and interbred

The oldest potential Neanderthal bones date to 430,000 years ago

Anatomically modern humans emerged around 300,000 years ago in Africa, evolving from Homo heidelbergensis or a similar species.

The date of divergence of Neanderthals from their ancestor H. heidelbergensis is also unclear.

my thinking was that if both homo sapiens and Neanderthals evolved from "h. heidelbergensis" than Neanderthals met h. sapiens but not their "ancestors"
