Main comic (one panel): An insect-like creature with a bulbous body and big black eyes lounges in a red armchair, gesturing with its spindly limbs as it speaks: "'Course, that was back 12 hours ago, when parents KNEW how to raise their children." A small green younger insect looks on from the lower right. The joke: for a short-lived insect, twelve hours ago is the bygone 'good old days' of better parenting.
Votey (one rough sketch panel): Two people sit at a table. One, wearing glasses, asks, "Do you miss 'The Far Side?'" The other replies wistfully, "So. Much." A nod to Gary Larson's bug-and-creature humor that the main comic evokes.
