We present a comment to a recent paper by Dominguez et. al. They claimed that the electrostatic interaction between charged colloids trapped at an interface formed by a dielectric and a screening phase is always isotropic to order $d^-3$. Base on this result, they claimed that in-plane dipolar attraction of order $d^-3$ between colloids cannot exist, in contrast to previous proposals. We point out that their analysis is not completed and anisotropic (dipolar) interaction between colloids can exist up to order $d^-3$.
