Panel 1:
A red-haired man in a maroon collared shirt grimaces in frustration as he holds a knife or razor to his wrist, apparently trying to cut himself but failing.
Man (speech bubble): DAMMIT!
Caption (below panel): Stupid suicide vaccine!
Votey:
A man stands on the floor with his arms raised, a concrete block tied to his ankle, surrounded by fish swimming in water around him — he is at the bottom of a body of water but very much alive and unharmed.
Man (speech bubble): THIS SUCKS.

Main comic, single panel: A frustrated red-haired man in a maroon shirt presses a knife against his own wrist, but it isn't working. He shouts "DAMMIT!" The caption below reads: "Stupid suicide vaccine!" — the joke being that he's been vaccinated against suicide and physically cannot harm himself. Votey (aftercomic), black-and-white sketch: The same gag continues — a man stands underwater at the bottom of a lake or sea with a heavy concrete block chained to his ankle, fish swimming past, yet he remains perfectly alive and breathing. He flatly complains, "THIS SUCKS."
