Even without getting the joke, you can tell that this is supposed to be funny. But, unless you can decipher the next-to-last panel - and I can't - it is just a waste of time.
If you do understand it, and would care to explain it to me, fine, but jokes that have to be explained usually aren't very funny - at least to the one who needed the explanation.
It did remind me of something one of my professors said once, "If I told you a horribly obscene joke in Pashtu, and you didn't speak the language, it wouldn't be funny, it wouldn't be dirty, and it wouldn't be a joke. It would only be a collection of nonsense syllables."
