Main comic (single chaotic panel):

A monstrous creature with tentacles and antlers attacks a group of people in a laboratory-like setting. Vivid red background.

Sound effect / shouting (man with orange hair being grabbed): "ERKK!"
Sound effect / shouting: "AHHGH!"
Monster sound effect: "KWEEKGH!!!"

A green tentacle erupts from the orange-haired man's mouth/face. A man in a purple shirt recoils in horror in the foreground.

A man in the lower-left, looking shocked: "WAIT, WHY DOES IT HAVE TENTACLES?"

Label on a piece of equipment (an oscilloscope-like monitor showing a jagged green waveform): "TEST SUBJ. NO. 124"

Caption beneath the panel: "March 18, 1975: Lost Jennings and Turleton today. I'm beginning to wonder if the creation of this \"Cadbury Bunny\" is worth the large and growing body count."

Votey:

A man in a suit sits with his eyes closed, holding a small cup. Speech bubble: "SOOO WORTH IT."

Main comic: a single frenzied panel on a bright red background showing a tentacled, antlered monster (a lab "Cadbury Bunny" experiment) attacking scientists. An orange-haired man is being killed as a green tentacle bursts from his face; sound effects read "ERKK!", "AHHGH!", and the monster's "KWEEKGH!!!". A man in a purple shirt recoils in horror. In the lower left, a shocked man asks, "Wait, why does it have tentacles?" A monitor labeled "Test Subj. No. 124" shows a jagged green waveform. A diary-style caption reads: "March 18, 1975: Lost Jennings and Turleton today. I'm beginning to wonder if the creation of this 'Cadbury Bunny' is worth the large and growing body count." Votey: a sketch of a calm man in a suit, eyes closed, holding a small cup (of chocolate), saying "Sooo worth it." The joke: despite the deadly carnage, the creator decides the chocolate Cadbury bunny was completely worth it.
