Title: "College Nihilist" / "Real Nihilist"

Panel 1:

• Background: A group of people stands in conversation, appearing slightly confused or annoyed.
• Character (College Nihilist): A young man with light brown hair and wearing a blue vest over a white shirt gestures emphatically.
• Dialogue:
  • College Nihilist: “DON'T YOU GUYS GET IT? NONE OF THIS MATTERS! IT'S ALL POINTLESS! I KNOW BECAUSE I'VE WRITTEN FOUR ESSAYS ABOUT IT. FOUR!”

Panel 2:

• Background: A dark landscape with a large, imposing structure (possibly a building or temple) that has a triangular roof.
• Character (Real Nihilist): A similar young man, standing alone in front of the structure with light brown hair, now holding a confident, somewhat smug expression.
• Dialogue:
  • Real Nihilist: “I'M GONNA MAKE AS MUCH MONEY AS I CAN, AND SPEND IT ON MORE MONEY.”

Visual Elements:

• The use of bold, capital letters emphasizes emotions.
• The characters’ facial expressions reflect sarcasm and confidence.
• The contrasting backgrounds highlight the difference in attitudes between the two nihilists.
