The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Dark humor differs from blue comedy, which focuses more on topics such as nudity, sex, and body fluids, and from obscenity.
- Additionally, whereas the term dark humor is a relatively broad term covering humor relating to many serious subjects, gallows humor tends to be used more specifically in relation to death, or situations that are reminiscent of dying.
- Dark humor can occasionally be related to the grotesque genre.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Dark humor article was read about 220,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 52: each hit it takes is cut by 21 %.
