Js: elem.onclick works, elem2.onclick doesnt fire at all

I'm stumped. I'm building a webapp for reading comics. Testing on Android 4.4.2 and Android L Dev preview (second edition, released this week)

The following code works:

var comicstack = document.createElement("div");
comicstack.className = "comicstack";
comicstack.comic = comic;
comicstack.onclick = function() {
    loggr.log(" > Click: "+ this.comic);
    site.hcomic.init(this.comic);
}

But when I hide the section that holds these elements and draw new ones in another section (done by site.hcomic.init), the onclick just doesn't fire

var comicstack = document.createElement("div");
comicstack.className = "comicstack";
comicstack.comic = series;
comicstack.issue = issue;
comicstack.onclick = function() {
    loggr.log("HEY I'M BEING CLICKED BUT I'M IGNORING IT HAHA!");
}

What is the world am I doing wrong?

(Btw, the loggr.log() function is a wrapper around console.log, long story)
