Comic Description:

The comic features a colorful, cartoon-style illustration with four characters: two adults, a child, and an adult woman holding an object that appears to be a zip-up sleeping bag.

• Top Speech Bubble: A light purple background contains the text: "Now, he may claim otherwise, but every boy's desire is to return to a soft warm womb. That's why I made this zip-up sleeping bag designed to look just like mommy."

• Characters:
  • Adult Man: He has brown hair and is dressed in a beige suit with a checkered shirt underneath and a tie.
  • Adult Woman: She has long blonde hair and wears a light blue shirt. She stands beside the man.
  • Child: A boy with short brown hair, wearing a blue shirt, is clinging to the woman's leg.
  • Another Adult Woman: She has short gray hair and is dressed in a yellow long-sleeve top. She is holding the zip-up sleeping bag in front of her, seemingly speaking to the others.
• Bottom Text: At the bottom of the comic, there is a caption in bold text that reads: "Practical Joke of the Year: Convincing your friends you’re a child psychologist."

Overall, the scene presents a humorous take on parenting and childhood desires.
