It's not that great, and the gag has been done, but I enjoyed doing it. I was thinking about taking the colored pencils to it, but I'm not sure if I will. It would help contrast the mountains in the background with the cliff in the foreground, but I'm not sure if I want to take the time. What do you think?

I'm afraid I don't get the gag. However, I think you can color the picture like this and it would match your art nicely

The gag is that there's a lot of strange, momentous stuff going on and the kid gives an underwhelming response. Not hilarious, especially after the explanation, but I enjoyed drawing the thing.
Hey, what do you think of the art? I'm trying to break my scribbling habit. Do the lines look cleaner?
The lines look cleaner and I think the art is better. I like it, I just think you should be like George Herriman and embrace the scribbliness. If it matches the feeling of your story, never fear.

I liked it, too. But I didn't "get it" either at first.
Keep after it, I wish I could drawer.
I can comfort myself with the fact that Mary Ann got my joke, but maybe that just means it's something that makes sense in our family culture but nowhere else. That limits my appeal.
Oh well, at least the art is decent . . . I guess.
