A black-bordered comic. Panel 1: a balding man sits across a desk from a red, horned devil in a dress shirt and tie. The man says, "How is this hell? It's exactly like my office job from before I died." The devil replies, "Oh? I take it you haven't seen... your new shift?!" and holds up a sign reading "Todd: 9:00-5:00 plus twenty minutes!" Lower panel: a close-up of the man's anguished face as he screams, "Noooooooo!" The joke: eternal damnation is just his old office job extended by twenty extra minutes. Votey (a rough black-and-white extra panel): the devil leans in and adds, "Oh also, vultures peck out your liver every day," referencing the myth of Prometheus. The man, far more unbothered by this than by the twenty extra minutes, replies, "Ech."
