You have comix in the tree media-gfx (a GTK image viexer) and comix in x11-themes (style for KDE) then the name is ambigous. Then you have to do an "emerge -u media-gfx/comix" or "emerge -u x11-themes/comix". In recent portage version, I think the error message is easiest to understand. What is your portage version ? You can find it with an "emerge --info". Furthermore, when you submit a bug, it can be useful for us to have the result of the "emerge --info" command as an attachment.
Please attach or add the output of "emerge --info"
ISTR this is a duplicate.
Seem to be bug 217714, affecting portage-2.1.4.5 instead of 2.1.4.4. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 217714 ***
