It's a fun comic, but the way it's laid out is kind of confusing (it would have made more sense to me if the fantasy was on the right) and it took me way too long to figure out what 'erised' meant for a four-panel joke.
Same, or have the background colors be consistent
I think
- wants to be on a resort, being taken care of
- Wants to be rich and have hair
- Person wants to be a robot? Robot wants to be a person? The second one feels more likely because the person looks happier
- Standing person wants to be on the computer, because that is who is looking? Or sitting person wants to be done with work, because the standing one is happier?
As art, the comic was effective because I spent a lot of time looking at the relatively simple comic
Though, this does actually prompt the idea for a different comic where the punchline is that the side you thought was the mirror is actually the real world.

Not sure if I would agree with this. I don't think you should measure how successful art is by how long you spend looking at it. I'm not even sure if it's something you can measure at all since it's so subjective
So I was thinking this at first, but then looking at it more, I think it's intentionally not clear. Kind of like a grass is greener situation. The title is also mirror "universe", so it implies that both sides of the reflection exist and are real in their own universes. The implication is that you're never going to be satisfied when you have what you think you want
this thing is ripe for bone hurting, is there a bone hurting juice community
Please tell me if you find one
Posting each panel separately is a neat idea

What's that guy's junk drinking? Is it a cocktail?
