Can someone explain the joke? I get the Micheal Jordan and the Jordan logo but don't understand the other parts. Thanks!

It's based on a short story called The Enigma of Amigara Fault, where

spoilerpeople find people-shaped holes in the mountains and feel compelled to go inside them.

Here's a short summary. You can read it in full here.

If you like it, I highly recommend all his manga. They're all just as creepy/terrifying as this one.

It's quite a spooky story. You may or may not be interested in reading it.

I never really got what was so spooky about it. My unpopular opinion is that it's a pretty mid story that's saved by good illustration.

As a caver I must say it is spooky and wish I never read it.

Depends a bit on how sensitive you are for claustrophobia. In a sense you can read it as people being stuck in their holes for eternity in some kind of trance.

This can get a very weird feeling of destitute loneliness, akin to a astronaut slowly drifting off in space. It's not horror per se, but some perceive it that way.

See OPs comment below with a link to the reference comic. Fair warning though, it's some unsettling shit.
