Main comic, single panel: An orange-haired woman in a pink shirt confronts a bare-backed man (shown from behind), pressing an object against him that bears the yellow words "I SMELL." She says, "I'm sorry, but I can't be with someone who doesn't believe in this!" The caption underneath asks, "What if it wasn't a cross that Jesus was put on?" — implying the religious symbol everyone reveres could just as easily have been something absurd like an "I SMELL" sign. Votey (rough black-and-white sketch): a man's face looks up at the object mounted on a post and complains, "Aw c'mon!"
