Main comic (single panel):

A frog-like king (named in the caption as Baron Frogulus) — a green humanoid frog wearing a gold crown, red cape, and red pants — stands beside a lake gesturing at a blonde princess seen from behind. He shouts in a speech bubble:

Frog king: "DAMMIT PRINCESS! YOU ONLY HALF-KISSED ME! YOU HAVE TO USE BOTH LIPS OR IT DOESN'T WORK!"

A small green frog sits on a rock at the water's edge near the princess.

Frog (small frog on rock): "Ribbit!"

Caption (below the panel): "Baron Frogulus would pop up from time to time and critique the princess' kissing technique."

Votey:

A crowned man's face in profile, looking deadpan.

Off-panel / first voice: "GET A HOBBY!"

Crowned man: "THIS IS MY HOBBY."

Single-panel comic: by a lake with mountains in the background, a green frog-man wearing a gold crown, red cape, and red pants stands and angrily gestures at a blonde princess (seen from behind). He yells, 'DAMMIT PRINCESS! YOU ONLY HALF-KISSED ME! YOU HAVE TO USE BOTH LIPS OR IT DOESN'T WORK!' A small green frog on a nearby rock says 'Ribbit!' Caption beneath: 'Baron Frogulus would pop up from time to time and critique the princess' kissing technique.' The joke: instead of becoming a prince after one kiss, this entitled frog king keeps reappearing to nitpick the princess's kissing. Votey (aftercomic): a deadpan crowned man's face in profile. An off-panel voice says 'GET A HOBBY!' and he flatly replies, 'THIS IS MY HOBBY.' — confirming that critiquing her kissing is just what he does for fun.
