Main comic: A single panel. In the foreground, a dark-haired siren is seen from behind, raising one hand, watching a small wooden boat out on the water. Standing on the boat with arms thrown wide, Odysseus shouts, "We approach the island of the siren! They will tempt me with their songs and beauty! Quick, tie me to the mast!" One of his weary crew replies, "*sigh*... Okay, boss." A caption beneath reads: "Historical Fun Fact: Odysseus had a fetish for erotic denial." Votey: A black-and-white close-up of the siren's face, looking pained and conflicted, saying through gritted teeth, "Oh yes. Sing. SING" — the implication being she is the one being denied/tormented as Odysseus enjoys resisting her.
