Panel 1 (top caption banner): HOW COME WE DO THIS FOR EVERY TEST INVOLVING RELATIVITY...
Panel 1 (a newspaper-style mock article beside a portrait of Einstein):
Headline: EINSTEIN PROVEN RIGHT AGAIN, SAY RESEARCHERS
Subhead: All attempts to defeat him humiliated once more; experts plan additional test anyway
Body: On Monday scientists wailed in anguish as once again history's greatest genius pisto[text continues off-frame]
Panel 2 (bottom caption banner): BUT NOT THIS FOR EVERY TEST INVOLVING ENTANGLEMENT?
Panel 2 (a newspaper-style mock article beside the same portrait of Einstein):
Headline: EINSTEIN WAY OFF, AS USUAL, CONFIRM SCIENTISTS
Subhead: Prediction of local hidden variables continues to be super super dead stupid wrong
Body: Experiment makes clear that the real Bell inequality was in ability to grasp the fundam[text continues off-frame]

A two-panel comic styled as a pair of mock newspaper articles, each next to the same head-and-shoulders portrait of Albert Einstein with his signature wild hair and mustache. A pink caption banner above the first panel reads: 'HOW COME WE DO THIS FOR EVERY TEST INVOLVING RELATIVITY...' That article's headline reads 'EINSTEIN PROVEN RIGHT AGAIN, SAY RESEARCHERS,' with a subhead about every attempt to defeat him being humiliated once more. The second panel's pink caption banner reads: 'BUT NOT THIS FOR EVERY TEST INVOLVING ENTANGLEMENT?' Its article headline reads 'EINSTEIN WAY OFF, AS USUAL, CONFIRM SCIENTISTS,' with a subhead saying his prediction of local hidden variables continues to be 'super super dead stupid wrong.' The joke: depending on whether a physics test confirms relativity or entanglement, the press frames Einstein as either an infallible genius or a perpetual idiot. The votey (bonus panel) shows hand-lettered text reading 'ALTERNATE HEADLINE: "EINSTEIN BEING WRONG ABOUT ENTANGLEMENT ONCE AGAIN PROVEN TO BE NEITHER HIDDEN NOR VARIABLE"' — a pun on the 'local hidden variables' theory he was wrong about.
