A clergyman stands at the edge of an open grave in a cemetery, speaking to a small group of mourners dressed in black. His speech bubble says: βIN CONCLUSION, IβD LIKE TO SAY A FEW WORDS ABOUT HUMOR, THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE, AND UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCESβ. In the grave, a coffin is open and a jack-in-the-box figure is springing up from it. One mourner lies flat on her back on the ground beside the clergyman, apparently having fallen over in reaction. Behind the grave is a gravestone labelled βLAST LAUGH LARRY,β and several other gravestones stand in the background.
βAt the end, even the punchline runs out.β A graveside speech tries to sum up a life of jokes β while the headstone quietly lands the final one. β°οΈπͺ¦π #EditorialCartoon #LastLaugh #DarkHumor #WileyMiller
