Description

Here’s a detailed, disability-friendly description of the comic:

Title at the top: "DO NOT DATE A SCIENTIST"

Panel 1: Normal Person

• A scene depicting a sandy beach with a water body in the background.
• In the foreground, a group of three muscular, hairless men holding spears are advancing towards a frightened man with short hair, who is standing with his arms raised in a state of panic.
• The panicked man is shouting "AAAAAH!" in a speech bubble above his head, expressing fear.
• The muscular men appear agitated and focused on the fearful man.

Panel 2: Anthropologist

• The setting continues on the beach, and the same group of men is present, but they are now engaged in conversation with an older man with gray hair, who has a clipboard in his hand.
• The elder is wearing a green shirt and appears to be calmly discussing the situation.
• A closer look shows the text on the clipboard, which reads: "The indigenous population of the island has an acute propensity for murder."
• The anthropologist's demeanor contrasts sharply with the fear displayed in the first panel, as he explains the situation academically.

This visual contrast between panic and scholarly analysis creates a humorous commentary on the differing perspectives of a normal person and a scientist.
