Single panel (no dialogue in the main panel).
The scene is a group of people sitting around a campfire at night under a starry sky, roasting food on sticks. Mounted on poles around the campsite are several severed human heads, also being roasted/displayed like marshmallows or trophies on sticks. A larger cut of meat roasts on a spit over the central fire.
The image is framed as a graph. Along the bottom is a horizontal axis labeled:
ALL OF HISTORY
A vertical arrow on the right side points up to a label:
ARTIFICIAL SPERM CREATED
Votey:
A close-up of a person's face looking upward, speaking in a speech bubble:
"The stars are so bright now."

Single-panel comic drawn as a graph. The horizontal axis along the bottom is labeled "ALL OF HISTORY" and a vertical arrow on the right points up to the label "ARTIFICIAL SPERM CREATED." The panel shows a cheerful group of people sitting around a campfire at night under a starry sky, roasting food. But mounted on poles around the campsite are several severed human heads, displayed on sticks like marshmallows, with a large cut of meat roasting on a spit over the fire — implying that once artificial sperm makes men biologically unnecessary, humanity (here, a circle of women) casually disposes of the men. Votey: a close-up of a contented person's face gazing upward, saying "The stars are so bright now."
