A man with reddish-blond wavy hair in a red shirt stands with his arm around a woman, gesturing grandly with a hand on his chest as he proclaims in a speech balloon: "Love is mysterious! Love is invincible! Love is the greatest force in the universe!" The dark-haired woman in a teal tank top beside him rolls her eyes, completely unimpressed. The caption below reads: "Man, Melvin Love sure is full of himself" — revealing that his bombastic declarations are just bragging because his surname is literally "Love." Votey: a rough black-and-white sketch of the cartoonist hunched at a desk, with a speech balloon saying, "Huh. It also works if his last name is Weiner."
