Comic Description:

Panel 1: A man with a beard, looking distressed, asks another character, "Hast seen the white whale?!"

Panel 2: Another character, who appears focused, says "searching…" while holding a card.

Panel 3: The first character, looking relieved, sees a message: "WHALE FOUND AT -21.6157, 173.007894." The card has options, "Fire Harpoon?" with buttons for "No" (red) and "Yes" (green).

Panel 4: The man exclaims dramatically, "From home’s hearth, I stab at thee!" with a raised fist, feeling triumphant, followed by "woohoo!" as he reads "WHALE KILLED!" on his device.

Panel 5: A woman asks, "Do you feel better now?" The man responds, "I… no. I don’t…"

Panel 6: The man reflects, "Somehow, the demise of the beast that took my leg… the beast whose death I lusted after… does nothing for my soul."

Panel 7: The woman, looking unimpressed, replies, "That's nice, dear."

Panel 8: The man concludes cheerfully, "But hey, I found out really fast, so that’s a big time savings! I’m gonna go play video games!"

The woman looks skeptical but continues to listen.
