What is the difference between '

The words "comic" and "comical" are related to humor, but they are used in different ways.

Comic

amusing you and making you want to laugh

"Comic" is used to describe things that are meant to make you laugh. For example, a comic book is a book that is meant to be funny. A comic actor is an actor who makes people laugh.

Comical

behaviour or situations that are comical are funny in a strange or unexpected way

On the other hand, "comical" is used to describe things that are funny in a surprising or silly way. For example, if someone makes a funny face, you can say that they have a comical expression. If something funny happens that you didn't expect, you can say it is a comical situation.

So, if something is meant to be funny, like a book or a movie, you can say it is comic. But if something is funny in a surprising or silly way, you can say it is comical.
