A mock movie-poster comic styled as an action-film trailer. In a wide opening panel, robed biblical figures are surrounded and closing in on by spear-and-shield-wielding soldiers. A frightened woman turns to a bearded old man and cries, "MOSES! WHAT DO WE DO?! YOU CAN'T FIGHT OFF ALL THESE ARMIES!" Moses calmly answers, "OH, THEY'LL BE PARTING SOON." Against a dramatic red background he throws his arms wide in a commanding pose; in the next panel the soldiers and their shields lie scattered and broken across the ground as the robed group walks safely through. A title card on black reads: "COMING SOON. MOSES: BOOK OF WRECKSODUS" — punning on "parting" the Red Sea and Exodus/"wrecks." Votey: A person wearing all black in a ninja-style balaclava that exposes only the eyes, against a blue background, says "GOD DANG, IT'S HOT." — a joke about wearing a hot black outfit.
