Comic #4218: the-scariest-possibility
Description
Comic Description:
Panel 1:
- A young boy, Billy, is sitting up in bed, hands raised and looking distressed.
- He is shouting, "DAAAAD!"
Panel 2:
- An adult man, presumably Billy's dad, with a mustache and glasses, is standing in the doorway.
- He looks concerned and responds, "WHAT IS IT, BILLY?!"
Panel 3:
- Billy, still looking worried, poses a question: "What if the world is too complicated to assign blame to any particular actor, even in the face of grim catastrophe?"
Panel 4:
- The dad replies in a reassuring tone, "Don't worry! Just check out a news site or consult a popular spiritual advisor. All problems have a single cause that can be determined entirely by consulting your own gut reaction."
Panel 5:
- Billy appears anxious again, saying, "But… I dunno… what if you're wrong? It'd be scary."
Panel 6:
- The dad, wearing glasses and a confident expression, concludes, "Then it's a good thing that'll never happen."
