what am I supposed to be seeing here?

>>93413903
im at a loss of word on how i could explain this

>>93413903
I'm at a Loss myself.

>exact recreation in terms of panel to panel events
>actually feels less like Loss than the super esoteric shit like the Pollock inspired paintings because the panel placement is altered

>>93413995
no no no

its losangular

it fits so perfectly

its like that post modern pain that is tilted on purpose because the canvas is only horizontal when its tilted

This is why people laugh at art critics.

If anything, this shows how Loss SHOULD HAVE looked if Buckley wasn't a hack. Notice how panels are variably spaced to give you emotional impact - it doesn't FEEL funny.

Loss feels funny because of the panel layout. We see basically the same panel four times, it looks like it's building up to a punchline. It's inherently funny - and of course the reason why OTHER cartoonists use this format is because it's useful when you're doing a comedy gag strip. Buckley used it without understanding of the artform because he's a fucking hack.

Fuck....

So the short version is that Buckley made a funny joke by accident?

>>93415097
Basically, yeah. He was trying to make a tragic drama, but because he was still using the format for a comic strip, it came out funny.

It's as if someone was making medical drama and after someone has a miscarriage, sound guy accidentally added a laugh track, accidentally making it into a hilarious joke.

TV Tropes call this phenomenon "narm":

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Narm

After a scene in Six Feet Under where a character is having a stroke and is shouting "numb arm" that slowly becomes "narm!" It's supposed to be tragic but a guy yelling "narm!" is just too ridiculous to take seriously.

I really don't think this is a reference to Loss. Beyond both being about a guy running into a hospital they have almost nothing in common. If you know Loss you can force the connection but it's really not there.

Shit that's funny
