I’d say that for most cartoonists, our own work doesn’t make us laugh . An idea may make us laugh at first, but after rewriting, rethinking, penciling, inking, etc. it’s hard to know if it’s funny at all. It takes some time and distance, and then we still might not laugh. The end line in this strip on Gocomics.com makes me laugh. Well, not out loud but, I do think it’s funny. And since I think it’s actually funny , I – with my usual self doubt – am amazed that I wrote it.
The strip is part of a series that started here.
Now that I look at them, I think this whole series is funny. (Hmmm, I don’t remember hiring a gag writer…)
