The first rule you have to learn as a cartoonist is: you shall not explain your cartoon! Never! NEVER! Why? When you do that, everybody believes it NEEDS an explanation and the punchline wouldn't work without. And in that case it's a wordplay and not a cartoon.

... but: in this case here it would be funny to explain that the punchline REALLY stucks! Hahaha!

I shall not explain my cartoons, I shall not explain my cartoons ...

«DRAMA IN THE DEEP SEA»

---

Dramen der Tiefsee | Der Chaenophryne melanorhabdus am Telefon: "Die Pizza ist hier wieder fürchterlich kalt angekommen" - Der Fisch rechts unten: "Und ungeschnitten!" - Der Fisch links unten: "Sag, dass wir unser Geld zurückhaben wollen!" | Fisch ben rechts: "Mann-o-mann!" | Die Qualle oben links: eher unverständlich

Someone told me it would be funnier when the Chaenophryne Melanorhabdus would use a sea shell phone.
Is that true?
