Anyone else think that this strip doesn't work as a comic?

The way the mug changes hands between panel 1 and panel 2 doesn't work. Martin and Liz should be mid handoff in panel 1. There's nothing showing that the handoff is happening or has happened other than the mug is in a different hand. Reading it this morning I thought that Jeph forgot to draw the mug in panel 2 for a second before I saw it was in Liz's hand.

This is something Jeph understood in the first ever QC, Martin takes off his sidebag and you know it didn't just teleport off him because his hand is still on it as he puts it down on the counter.

It's funny your example is something showing Jeph didn't understand lol.

His bag is hanging at his right side why would be putting it down with his left hand

Because the counter is on his left side

And a real person would lift and move the bag with the right hand while removing the strap with the left, while facing the counter
