+

Scene 43! (in green)

Man: I found some creative ways to extend our zombie movie's budget.

Votey:
A close-up of a soldier or armored figure in helmet and uniform, shown in black-and-white sketchy line art, looking down/forward.

A grinning red-haired man in a blue shirt gestures proudly at a framed whiteboard. On it, handwritten in colored marker, is an equation: 'Homeless shelter' (red) plus 'Small pox' (blue) equals 'Scene 43!' (green). Caption: 'I found some creative ways to extend our zombie movie's budget.' The joke: he plans to film a real smallpox outbreak at a homeless shelter as free zombie footage. Votey (aftercomic): a black-and-white close-up of a helmeted, uniformed figure looking on, saying 'OH, THIS IS PERFECT.'
