Panel 1:
A blond superhero in a blue costume with a domed mask confronts a green-and-red costumed figure with a small mustache against a colorful cityscape backdrop. The hero brandishes what appears to be a small object (resembling a thermometer or stick) toward the other figure.

Hero (blue costume): "YOU'RE UNDER ARREST PTERRORDACTYL!"
Green/red figure: "OH WE'LL SEE ABOUT THAT AQUAJERK!"

Caption (below panel): "I don't think I like your tone very much," muttered AquaJerk.

Votey:
A close-up of the blond hero's smiling face.
AquaJerk: "I have the power to be passive-aggressive with the creatures of the sea!"

A superhero comic panel set against a brightly colored cityscape. On the left, a blond hero in a blue costume with a domed mask brandishes a small object and declares, "YOU'RE UNDER ARREST PTERRORDACTYL!" On the right, a mustached figure in a green-and-red costume retorts, "OH WE'LL SEE ABOUT THAT AQUAJERK!" A caption below reads: "'I don't think I like your tone very much,' muttered AquaJerk." The joke is that the supposed hero is named AquaJerk and responds to confrontation with petty sulking. Votey (aftercomic): a hand-drawn close-up of the smiling blond hero saying, "I have the power to be passive-aggressive with the creatures of the sea!" — mocking the uselessness of an Aquaman-style water-themed power channeled into pettiness.
