A five-panel SMBC comic set on the Moon. An astronaut stands beside a planted American flag on the gray lunar surface under a black sky, then a wide shot shows a figure holding a long pole, then the astronaut walks across the cratered ground with a blue beam of light. A bright starburst panel reads "POP!" Finally the helmeted astronaut radios in: "Houston, this is Apollo 11. We need to take a moon landing as soon as possible." A bottom banner reads that the comic is brought to you by buyers of the book SOONISH. In the votey, a close-up of the astronaut's worried face inside the helmet adds: "Also, I'm gonna need the mother of all glue sticks" - implying something has popped or broken and needs an absurdly large repair.
