Description

The comic features a graph titled "MAD SCIENTIFIC PURITY."

• The horizontal axis is labeled "MAD" with categories: "MAD HUMANITIES," "MAD SOCIAL SCIENCE," "MAD CHEMISTRY," "MAD PHYSICS," and "MAD MATHEMATICS."
• The vertical axis is labeled "DANGER."

On the graph, there are five points marked with figures:

1. Near "MAD HUMANITIES," a figure is saying, "I'LL INTERPRET SHAKESPEARE IN AN IMPOSSIBLE AND ANNOYING WAY!"
2. At the peak, near "MAD CHEMISTRY," another figure states, "EVERYONE WILL DIE OF GAS POISONING. SO MUCH PAIN."
3. Toward the right, at "MAD MATHEMATICS," a final figure says, "I'M ACTUALLY INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM A REGULAR MATHEMATICIAN."

The graph shows a curve peaking at "MAD CHEMISTRY," indicating that it is perceived as the most dangerous branch of the mad sciences.
