Potter's product sees nothing leaving comic for age (7)

I believe the answer is:

ceramic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'potter's product' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'nothing leaving comic for age' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'age' could be 'era' (both can mean a long time) and 'era' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'sees' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ceramic that I've seen before include "pottery item" , "Potter's product" , "Made of clay and hardened by heat" , "Made of fired clay" , "Hard clay" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
