Three-panel comic. Panel 1: Cone-shaped, rocket-like aliens with glowing yellow eyes declare, "Humans! We demand to see your leader!" Panel 2: The President of the United States, a bald bearded man in a suit, says, "Hello, I'm the President of the most powerful nation on Earth." An alien retorts, "Bah! You cannot be in charge. We want to see whoever is the most aerodynamic." Panel 3: The joke pays off visually as the Pope is shown asleep shirtless in bed, still wearing his tall pointed mitre (the most aerodynamic head shape), with a mug reading "#1 Pope" on the nightstand, snoring "zzz...". Votey aftercomic: a woman with glasses asks a bald bearded man in bed, "You're jealous of the Pope's hat aren't you?" He admits, "A little."
