I think it would've been made more obvious if the skeleton had not just the glasses but the moustache too.

    But the bones do have lines resembling a mustache, having actual hair on bones would be weird.

    Those are called teeth. And they don't look like the moustache of the guy.

    Sure, having a moustache on a skeleton is weird. But, it's a comic. A reductionist art form where emphasis is put on the specific characteristics of a person - in this case, glasses and moustache. To represent that character in a recognisable form, you ought to utilise the characteristics you've assigned to them. Even if it's weird.
