I think this is waaay better than the original. Got the point before the last panel, and I think this is damn genious man. The effect of realization is much stronger in this version. Of course it’s just my opinion, but yeah.
Just found your comic yesterday, this sh*t is great! Keep it up

Until I saw the original I thought it was a nerdy joke about how overcharging your battery will continue to make it weaker, most phone batteries only need an hour or so to charge.

having just discovered your webcomic less than half a day ago, i A) am enjoying it immensely, and 2) totally think the re-do of this one is perfectly valid, without the “low battery” suggestion (tho not a bad idea, as they go), and 2.1) yeah. good stuff man.

on a side note, i find new joy in your comics when i imagine the characters speaking with a kiwi accent. NZ is beautiful. visited, drove from christchurch to queenstown n back. sweet as!

id say if you want to make the joke easier to spot in this version so people don’t feel like its over explained but still understand it easier, draw like a small battery charging sign over the guy’s head as he sleeps, and then maybe put the last panel where the phone calls him a dick so you get the little laugh that the phone is angry at him and not just the humor of the irony

I personally prefer the first comic. That was the first comic I saw. The edited version just seems to leave people wondering what exactly the joke was. But I love it anyways. Great comic. (:

Until I saw the unedited version, I though that the joke was that people would give up power to their homes for power to their phones. Probably because it looks like his room is dark, while the other half has light, where the phone is.

I am so stupid sometimes.
