Ha! With an army helmet you'd remind me of my old comic hero, Sgt. Rock of Easy Co. Minor nit, a little more angle on the cigar would describe it better.

I don't agree Sam. The accoutrement in the lower left ties it all together for me. I may not be interpreting it as the artist intended, but it helps me interpret it just the same.
My take from what I see and the title:
Man contemplating suicide (the noose) and he is having a final drink and a cigar prior to acting on his impulse.
Again, I could be wrong but it's what I see, morbid as it may be.

Dark is certainly a direction Mr. Wuu tends to travel.
I didn't see this or the connection, but I think he looks too calm and put together to be contemplating suicide.
But our different views is another hall mark of our Wr. Wuu's work.
