Comic’s asset crossword clue

12 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 20, 2026 · 3 letters

Answer
WIT
WIT (3 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Comic’s asset” is WIT. It appears as 12 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 20, 2026, a Monday puzzle titled “Hold On!” by Daniel Hrynick, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 14 of the 15×15 grid.

The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with W and ends with T, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Monday puzzles are the most approachable of the week, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
