I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you have to rely on drawing a stupid face in the last panel, your joke isn't good enough.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he was bad at Mario Kart.

while I see your point, 100% of that comic that has been posted here has relied on a ridiculous face in the last panel to make up for a mediocre joke with no punchline of its own.

If you don't want to see someone draw something funny then why are you reading comics and not a joke book?

This works for movies too. For example: I don't see how anyone can call the Star Wars prequel trilogy bad with all that awesome CGI.

That Randis whatever comic there is really bad anyway, apart from the face thing.

A good joke saves lazy writing better than a good drawing saves a lazy joke but they are both acceptable content.
That's bill watterson's stance on it and I feel like he's the fuckin guy who'd know

The problem is when none of the things are good. Or one aspect is bad enough that it overwhelms the others.

That is a cartoonist trope that has been around long before Watterson. It's one of the un-written rules of comics.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
