Permission denied when I try to ssh into server

I'm having an issue when I try to ssh into my server with a private rsa key. I'm getting a permission denied error followed by a "Too many authentication failures for [user]".

Note: The rsa key id_linux has permissions of 600.

Here's the shell output:

Here's what my ssh_config file looks like.

Host comics
    HostName [site]
    IdentityFile ~/Desktop/Storage/id_linux
    IdentitiesOnly yes
    PubkeyAuthentication yes
    User [user]
    Port 2222

I've tried generating a new key but that didn't work. I still have the same issue.

Thanks for your help!
