Panel 1:
A young man with red/orange hair, wearing a green t-shirt, holds up a comic book toward an older balding gray-haired man (Father MacKenzie) seen from behind.
Young man: WHAT?! IT'S NOT HERESY IF THE POPE WINS!
The comic book cover he is holding reads:
"CHURCH COMICS!"
"POPE VS. MAMMOTH!"
"BRING IT!"
The cover shows the Pope facing off against a mammoth.
Caption (below panel): Father MacKenzie was even less forgiving of my "Pope vs. Jesus Christ."
Votey:
A rough black-and-white drawing of the Pope (wearing his pointed mitre and a chest medallion) shooting laser beams from his eyes, with a sound effect: "BZZZ!"

A young man with orange hair in a green t-shirt enthusiastically holds up a homemade comic book toward an older gray-haired priest, shown from behind. The man shouts, "WHAT?! IT'S NOT HERESY IF THE POPE WINS!" The comic cover reads "CHURCH COMICS! POPE VS. MAMMOTH! BRING IT!" and depicts the Pope squaring off against a mammoth. The caption reads: "Father MacKenzie was even less forgiving of my 'Pope vs. Jesus Christ.'" The joke: the man pitches absurd religious-themed superhero comics to a disapproving priest, with an even more blasphemous one teased. Votey (aftercomic): a crude black-and-white sketch of the Pope in his pointed mitre firing laser beams from his eyes with a "BZZZ!" sound effect, depicting his comic-book superpowers.
