Description
Here’s a detailed description of the comic:
Panel 1:
- The top half depicts a serene, tropical island surrounded by blue water under a bright blue sky with scattered clouds.
Panel 2:
- In the forest, a man is seen walking through tall trees with a gun slung over his shoulder. Several small, bare babies with different expressions (some worried, some scared) are clustered on the ground, looking at the man.
Panel 3:
- Close-up of an older man in a suit with a white beard, aiming a gun. There are comic-style sound effects: “FOOMP!” and “FOOMP!” as he fires something at one of the babies.
Panel 4:
- The scene continues in the forest, showing the aftermath of the shots. One of the babies has something attached to its back (possibly a device).
Panel 5:
- The older man, pleased with his capture, states, “Good. It’s a cute one.” Another man in a suit beside him replies, “This’ll bring top dollar back in the States.”
Panel 6:
- A domestic scene with a father and child. The child asks, “Daddy, where do babies come from?” The father responds, “Mama's tummy! Mama's tummy!”
The comic combines dark humor with a discussion of a serious topic, contrasting innocence with adult themes.
