Panel 1: A man in a yellow shirt stands by a green car in a parking lot, gesturing toward it. A woman (seen from behind in the foreground) watches.

Panel 2 (close-up): A green Jesus-fish (ichthys) car emblem with a cross at the tail, with the word "TRUTH" written inside it.

Panel 3: The woman, in a blue top and glasses, stands by a red car, gesturing back. The man's profile is in the foreground.

Panel 4 (close-up): A red car's "Darwin fish" emblem (an evolution fish with little feet) with "EVOLUTION" written inside it.

Panel 5: A man with orange/red hair in a green shirt joins them, gesturing toward his own car as the couple looks on.

Panel 6 (close-up): A large dark fish emblem with menacing teeth, an X for an eye, swallowing the other small fish. Text inside reads: "GULPO, THE FISH WHO EATS CONCEPTS"

Panel 7: Close-up of the orange-haired man smiling smugly.

Panel 8: The couple (the man in yellow and the woman in blue) stand looking unimpressed. A speech bubble (from the woman) says: "YOU'RE A DICK."

Votey:
A simple black-and-white drawing of the toothy "Gulpo" fish, with "SINGLE PANEL JOKES" written inside its open, biting mouth.

An eight-panel SMBC comic about car fish emblems. A man in yellow shows off his car's green Jesus-fish (ichthys) emblem with the word TRUTH inside it. A woman counters by pointing to her red car's Darwin evolution-fish emblem (a fish with legs) reading EVOLUTION. Then an orange-haired man in a green shirt smugly presents his car's emblem: a big menacing toothy fish with an X for an eye, devouring the smaller fish, labeled GULPO, THE FISH WHO EATS CONCEPTS. He grins smugly. In the final panel the unimpressed couple stares as the woman flatly says, YOU'RE A DICK. Votey: a plain black-and-white drawing of the same toothy Gulpo fish, its biting mouth now labeled SINGLE PANEL JOKES, implying Gulpo is eating up single-panel humor too.
