Single panel set on a stage with red curtains. A yellow banner behind the characters reads, in stylized game-show lettering, "the PRICE is LEFT" — where the "P" and "L" are drawn as a hammer and sickle and a Communist red star motif replaces the apostrophe-style decoration.
On the left, a smiling silver-haired man in a dark suit, red tie, and red pocket square holds a slim microphone and points one finger upward triumphantly.
On the right, a man in a hooded jacket raises both fists in the air with an exuberant, almost manic grin.
Caption (below panel): Before his rise as a gameshow host, Bob Barker was a rising star in the radical Communist party.
Votey:
Top caption box: ME, DRAWING THIS 12 YEARS LATER
A bearded man's face, looking weary and regretful.
Speech bubble: This has not aged well.

A single-panel comic on a stage with red curtains. A yellow game-show banner reads "the PRICE is LEFT," with the letters P and L stylized as a Communist hammer-and-sickle. A smiling silver-haired man in a dark suit, red tie, and red pocket square holds a microphone and points upward; beside him a hooded man throws both fists up with a manic grin. Caption: "Before his rise as a gameshow host, Bob Barker was a rising star in the radical Communist party." Votey: a top caption box reads "ME, DRAWING THIS 12 YEARS LATER" above a weary, regretful bearded man (the cartoonist) saying "This has not aged well."
