Comic Description:

Panel 1:

• A woman with long, dark hair is speaking to a man.
• The woman, dressed in a purple top, has her left hand on the man's shoulder.
• The man, who has gray hair and is wearing a brown top, is looking out of the window at the night sky filled with stars.
• Text:
  • Woman: "Why do I find you staring into the darkness some nights? What is it, Jon?"
  • Man: "You wouldn't understand."

Panel 2:

• The woman is looking at the man, who seems contemplative.
• Text:
  • Woman: "Is it a secret so dark that the shared knowledge would always be a wedge between us?"
  • Man: "Uh… yeah."

Panel 3:

• A graph is depicted below the characters.
• The graph is labeled "DESIRE TO OWN ALL STAR WARS COLLECTIBLES" on the left.
• The x-axis is labeled "AGE," ranging from 0 to 80.
• The curve shows a rise and fall, peaking around ages 10 and again at 60, with other smaller peaks in between.

This layout captures the emotional exchange between the characters while presenting a humorous visual graph that contrasts a personal topic with a lighthearted observation about age and fandom.
