If its your own comic, sure. If its one that's published elsewhere, no

Adding to what stiggo62… said, you can not plagurize somebody elses work either. In other words, you can't immitate the gag either.

If you get permission to use the cartoon, then it is no problem. Also, if the copyright of the source material has lapsed (it has become public domain) then you are free to use it.
