Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
Same reason most things are funny, or at least mildly amusing: inversion of expectations.
Maybe your expectations. There was no suspension of plot or conclusion or anything "absurd" about this. It started absurd with the zombie cats and basically didn't establish anything weirder. The zombie cat under the bed wasn't even a living cat, which would have added a juxtaposition.
Not humorous.
You should know, it is possible that other people find this comic funny even though you don't. And no matter how much you 'explain' why it isn't humorous, you can't undo the fact that other some people have found it funny. So then, what do you think people learn from your explanation?; Probably something about you rather than something about the comic.
"Suspension of plot or conclusion" are not really "things" at all, much less defining characteristics of humor. You just don't get it, and that's ok! It doesn't make you less than or anything.
