WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
(ANSWER ON BOTTOM)
Two nearly identical panels are shown side by side, presented as a spot-the-difference puzzle.
[Left panel and Right panel — both show the same scene:]
A laughing man with brown hair, mouth wide open, holds a large blue jug labeled "ACID!" (the letters A-C-I-D in red and dark coloring). Yellow liquid pours from the bottom of the jug onto the ground. A sign with an arrow points at the pouring liquid, reading "DUCKLINGS". Background is filled with repeated "HAHAHAHA" laughter text.
Bottom (printed upside-down):
A: Now you're a bad person!
Votey:
Handwritten text on a plain note: "No ducklings were unharmed in the creation of this comic."

A mock 'spot the difference' puzzle titled 'SMBC PRESENTS: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE? (answer on bottom).' Two identical side-by-side panels each show a laughing brown-haired man surrounded by repeated 'HAHAHA' text, tipping a large blue jug marked 'ACID!' so yellow liquid pours out; an arrow sign labels the liquid 'DUCKLINGS.' The answer, printed upside-down at the bottom, reads: 'A: Now you're a bad person!' — meaning the only difference between the two pictures is that now the reader is complicit. Votey: a handwritten note reading 'No ducklings were unharmed in the creation of this comic,' a twist on the usual disclaimer.
