A single-panel comic. On the left, a dark-haired man in profile speaks to a red-haired person whose face fills the right side in close-up. The man says, "I found a way to increase your expected lifespan 20 years." The other asks, "How?" He answers, "Step over this invisible line!" The other replies skeptically, "Riiiiiight." A caption below reads: "National borders are weird." In the votey aftercomic, a simply-drawn person stands with arms spread wide, glancing down at their own body, saying, "Weird. Half of my body has healthcare." The joke is that crossing an invisible national border can dramatically change someone's life expectancy and access to healthcare.
