Panel 1 (single panel):

Man with brown hair in a red shirt (standing at a supermarket seafood/lobster counter): "HEY MAN! YOU CAN'T EAT THESE LOBSTERS! WHAT DID THEY EVER DO TO YOU?!"

Man with blond flame-like hair, wearing a green shirt with a peace symbol (arms spread, pointing): "THOSE LOBSTERS KILLED MY FAMILY..."

Caption (below panel): This was, of course, a lie. Most of my immediate family came out of the lobster attack relatively unscathed.

Votey:

First lobster: "UGH. HOW DO YOU EAT THOSE?"

Second lobster: "BUTTER. LOTS OF BUTTER."

A single-panel comic at a supermarket seafood counter. A brown-haired man in a red shirt confronts a blond, peace-sign-wearing hippie, saying, "Hey man! You can't eat these lobsters! What did they ever do to you?!" The hippie spreads his arms dramatically and replies, "Those lobsters killed my family..." A caption below undercuts him: "This was, of course, a lie. Most of my immediate family came out of the lobster attack relatively unscathed." Votey aftercomic: two cartoon lobsters talk. One asks, "Ugh. How do you eat those?" The other answers, "Butter. Lots of butter" — implying the lobsters eat humans.
