Single panel:
A banner overhead reads: "WALK FOR THE CURE"
An angry man with red hair wearing a blue jersey with the number 5 points up at the banner with one hand while gripping a fallen boy by the collar with the other. The boy, blonde and wearing a white jersey with the number 7, has crashed on roller skates (purple roller skates and a skate are visible on the ground) and looks frightened, clutching his scraped knee.
Man (red hair, #5 jersey): "Does the sign say 'SKATE for the cure?' Huh?! Does it?"
Votey:
Close-up of a man's face, mouth open mid-shout, eyes intense.
Man: "THEIR DEATHS ARE ON YOUR HANDS!"

Single-panel comic. Overhead a yellow banner reads "WALK FOR THE CURE." An angry red-haired man in a blue number-5 jersey points up at the banner with one hand while grabbing the collar of a frightened blonde boy with the other. The boy wears a white number-7 jersey and has wiped out on roller skates, clutching his scraped knee, purple skates scattered on the ground. The man yells: "Does the sign say 'SKATE for the cure?' Huh?! Does it?" The joke: he is furiously berating the kid for skating instead of walking at a charity event. Votey (bonus panel): an extreme close-up of a man's face mid-shout, eyes wild, declaring "THEIR DEATHS ARE ON YOUR HANDS!" escalating the charity guilt-trip to absurd melodrama.
