Crossword Genius

The comical character of funny barmen (2,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mr bean

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

'the comical character' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'funny barmen' is the wordplay.
'funny' indicates an anagram.
'barmen' is an anagram of 'MR BEAN'.

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
