    I simultaneously posted the explanation as you asked. lol The halo is too bright as he tries to slumber.

    I also thought he should’ve lost the halo as he uses God to damn the situation, but it’s just a comic so overthinking it isn’t warranted.

        the saying about angels getting their halos is assumed to be a good thing, but in the comic the angels actually really don’t want a halo because it is very bright and makes it hard to sleep. Unless I’m missing another layer I think the tennis is just an arbitrary angelic recreational pass time that is known for having frustrated players break their rackets.

        The angel is angry because someone did a good deed and he got a halo, but now when he goes to sleep at night, the halo glows so brightly that he can’t sleep. So doing a good deed and giving an angel their halo actually ended up being a bad thing for this particular angel.
