A mock "SMBC FROM THE FUTURE" comic. The yellow caption banner reads: "JUNE 18, 2027: RUNNING LOW ON IDEAS, ZACH BEGINS CAPTIONING OTHER PEOPLE'S COMICS." Below, an orange-haired man hunches over a printed comic strip, pen in hand, scribbling his own captions over someone else's artwork. The original strip's speech bubble says "...LOVE LASAGNA!" (a Garfield reference), but he has scrawled in his own handwriting across it: "And then he f---ing died!" The joke is the cartoonist vandalizing wholesome newspaper comics with crude, morbid captions. Votey: another defaced panel where scrawled handwriting reads "PUT DOWN THE GUN MARMADUKE! PUT IT- NO! NO!", turning the Marmaduke comic into a violent standoff.
