Description

Here's a detailed description of the comic's content:

Panel 1: A person (illustrated as a man with short brown hair and a light complexion) is talking to a doctor (illustrated as a woman with medium-length dark hair), who is positioned to the right. The man has a skeptical expression and says, "I just don't think these antidepressants are for me, Doc." The doctor is slightly leaning forward, looking concerned.

Panel 2: The doctor asks, "Are you worried they'll negatively affect your personality? Studies show that–" The man interrupts with a dismissive "Nah," shrugging his shoulders.

Panel 3: The man continues, explaining, "It's just that I base my purchasing decisions entirely on whether the products are branded with pop culture characters. I almost died of thirst once, but then they made X-Men themed water." He is reclining, gesturing with his hands while speaking.

Panel 4: The doctor replies, "Well, I do have this sample of Star Wars branded Zoloft, but it's in colossally poor taste." She holds a small container of pills.

Panel 5: A close-up of the pill container shows the label reading: "Sertraline HCl (100 mg). Give in to the Dark Side, you should not." The bottle is designed to look like a Star Wars product.

Panel 6: The man exclaims, "They're 49 times the usual price of—" and then he gestures excitedly, "And the pills are tiny light sabers? SOLD!" His expression is enthusiastic and joyful.
