A colorful comic panel shows a giant green Godzilla-like monster rampaging through a city at night, roaring "RAAUGH!" with a jet of flame bursting from its mouth and a building ablaze beside it. A caption below reads: "Translation: Argh! My mouth is on fire! Why won't you help me?!" The joke is that the terrifying monster's roar actually means it is suffering and pleading for help. Votey (aftercomic): a plain black-and-white line drawing of the same monster's head with flames at its mouth and a speech bubble reading "NOW YOU MUST PAY!"
