A four-color comic panel shows a muscular man in a Superman-style costume—blue suit, red cape, yellow chest emblem—standing at a wooden podium with red laser beams firing from his eyes and one arm pointed at an audience seen from behind. His speech bubble reads: 'LASERS. I CAN SHOOT LASERS. FROM MY EYES.' The caption below reads: 'President Superman gave some brief remarks on the topic of term limits.' The joke: facing term limits, President Superman simply intimidates everyone by demonstrating his eye lasers. The votey is a hand-drawn campaign yard sign: 'SUPERMAN' with a checked box next to 'NOT-GETTING-KILLED-BY-LASERS' and 'in 2012!'—implying his entire reelection platform is voters not wanting to be lasered.
