Panel 1:
A man with long hair, a beard, and a glowing yellow halo (depicted as a Jesus-like figure) sits at a restaurant booth across from two other men, gesturing as he pitches an idea. A yellow notepad sits on the table in front of him, with small text on it reading "scribble scribble scribble."
Haloed man: "So, basically the idea is that there's this one true God who forgives you if you devote yourself to him."
Panel 2:
Close-up of the man's hands holding the yellow notepad and a pencil. The notepad is titled "IDEAS" with "JC 29AD" written in the corner. Crossed out near the top is "ANGRY SEA MONSTER" next to a doodle of a fanged sea creature. To the right, with a star/asterisk, is written "ONE TRUE GOD" with an arrow pointing to it.

A two-panel comic. Panel 1: A Jesus-like man with long hair, a beard, and a glowing halo sits in a restaurant booth pitching an idea to two other men across the table, a yellow notepad in front of him. He says, "So, basically the idea is that there's this one true God who forgives you if you devote yourself to him." Panel 2: A close-up of his hands holding the notepad, titled "IDEAS, JC 29AD." An earlier idea, "ANGRY SEA MONSTER" (with a doodle of a fanged monster), is crossed out, and "ONE TRUE GOD" is starred as the chosen concept — framing religion as a brainstormed product pitch. Votey: A close-up of the haloed man's smiling face looking up as he says, "Thank me copyright hasn't been invented yet," joking that he can freely borrow ideas because copyright doesn't exist in his era.
