Description

Here’s the text from the comic transcribed accurately:

Panel 1: Person (with a worried expression): "DEAR GOD, WHY DO BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE?"

Panel 2: Satan (in a dramatic pose): "GOD IS DEAD! THE WAR IS OVER! I, SATAN, RULE ALL."

Panel 3: Person: "SO, BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE BECAUSE…" Satan: "BECAUSE SATAN’S THE BOSS! I’M BAD, SO YOUR LIFE IS BAD."

Panel 4: Person (with tears): "ARE YOU CRYING TEARS OF JOY?" Person (smiling): "THANK YOU SATAN, THANK YOU!"

Panel 5: Person: "MY WHOLE LIFE MAKES SENSE NOW." Satan (with a frustrated look): "STOP IT!"

This captures the essence of the comic!
