A single-panel comic set in an Oval Office. A president-like man in a suit sits behind a desk near an American flag, while Superman stands before him, pulling open his shirt to show the "S" emblem. Superman asks, "What if I punched it? Like, really hard." A caption beneath reads: "Ultimately, Superman failed to defeat the energy crisis." The joke is that Superman's only solution to a complex problem is punching it. Votey: a hand-drawn close-up of Superman's face as he muses, "Could you punch a turbine?"
