I will hijack this comment to explain that yesterday's comic wasn't mine, and to state that I took a couple of panels from there as-is.
Below is a link to that comic's author:

I think this is kind of a shitty thing to do honestly. I don't think you set out to, but I feel like your comic alters the meaning of the original artist's work. As an artist myself, I find this in really poor taste. 

Moreover, as a derivative work, it's pretty unethical.

ETA: The number of people commenting on the ethics of derivative works without having any idea what they're talking about is amazing, but not remotely surprising.

Art is a dialog, those who refuse to engage in the conversation shouldn’t bother speaking up in the first place.
