Heard Joke Once

Description

Man goes to Doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up. Man bursts into tears. Says "But, Doctor...I am Pagliacci".

- Rorschach, The Watchmen

Finished reading "The Watchmen" yesterday, amazing book, everyone should read it. This joke really stood out for some reason, so I drew it's literal translation of Pagliacci, not it's reference to "The Comedian"

Eveyone, if you haven't go read the watchmen!
