Not bad...
But not that good either, like you said, not a masterpiece. The "random happy guy" has no nose! Neither does the other person have a nose! The person in the background can be understandable because he's shouting, but this guy...there's more than enough room for a nose to be placed in. It just looks kind of...off.
The "fists" that he's holding in front of his neck have a rather thick outline compared to the other outlines on the person, such as the eyes, or the ears. Talking about ears, they are drawn okay....but there are some random spots on his earlobe...and the ear ring? Is that ear ring fake? Because I can see a part jutting out that is supposed to be invisible, so that it seems as though it's being worn, rather than dangling on the same side and on the verge of falling down.
And the fire...I think you repeated the same mistake, no offence. There's this long smooth thing at the back of the character which for the life of me I don't know, but I'm just guessing it's smoke. It would've been better to put smoke where it was obvious, such as the fire that's actually visible.
And the door...there's a see-through panel that's a bit tinted; nice job on that, it seems as though it's a mirror partially due to the fire. Oh wait, it's a building? Or is it a door? What is it? If it's a building, the people are rather out of proportion compared to the building! The picture doesn't really depict that the characters are far away from the building, because it seems they just got out of the building, else they wouldn't be panicking!
The three teeth on the random happy guy are rather large, and the bite marks don't fit the orientation of the face. The one on the middle should produce bite marks that start up and move to the character's left, not the right. The others are okay, though.
The fists on the other person aren't really given detail too, and the first fist is thicker than the other's outline. There's a "bald spot" on the left of him, with a clean cut, i.e. there are no patches of brown hair there, just a clean skin.
Not bad, though, the emotions of the different characters are shown wonderfully, e.g one is in ecstasy, another is in panic. The backgrounds are also well drawn, as is the fire. (But it's more like lava...)
