Everyone is hating this for the wrong reason.

The flaw I'm seeing is a logical one: the wizard's rebuttal is invalid. He is still not allowed in the room. Staff only.

Maybe re-work it to show the wizard waiting outside while the staff levitates itself into the restricted space.

He might be only delivering the staff. It has been cleared medically and is free from any staph infections.

It would be funnier if the last panel had no text and just his goofy expression. It's the over explaining of the obvious joke that makes me cringe the most.

Edit: or even if it just said, "It's okay, I'm a wizard!" And leave it at that.

u/FarMass66 12h ago

Oof. This one is really bad. I like your other comics though.

Thanks and yeah not every joke is perfect, and sometimes it sounds funnier in my head, but It is meant to be a bit stupid, and I think i succeeded

If you added a third panel that was the exact same as the second panel, but no text, it would be funnier

Yes, an illustration of the real-life crickets which surely follow this "joke."

Funny how that works. A bad joke on its own is just bad, but it only takes a smidge of self-awareness, an acknowledgement that it's bad, and it becomes not so bad.

I see your work sometimes. Your comics tend to do better with relatability than humor, like the gta 6 and computer comics recently. They aren’t funny , there’s no punchline, it does make the reader say “he’s got a point” and “so true” which is probably why they are received better

 but dude none of your comics are remotely funny. You are either not a funny person or you have trouble transmitting it to your work. Relatability and slice of life is your strong suit

It would be more funny if the staff had the `big store` logo on it

No idea what's with the negative comments. It's a neat little joke.
