A three-panel comic in a fantasy dungeon setting. Panel 1: Two armored warriors stand in a stone corridor. A short one in a red cape holds a green potion and says "Damn." The taller one, holding a sword and a red potion, says "There's only one growth potion, but we both want it. Should we flip a coin, or—" Panel 2: A close-up of one bearded warrior's serious face saying "No." Panel 3: A close-up of the other bearded warrior, determined and angry, sword visible, declaring "I will be the bigger man." The joke: instead of sharing the growth potion fairly, he intends to take it himself so he literally becomes the bigger man, twisting the idiom about acting maturely. Votey: A small hand-drawn rectangular sign reading "Sorry."
