Description

Comic Description:

The comic consists of two panels.

Panel 1:

• A seated adult male is reading a book. He has short hair and is wearing a plain shirt.
• In the background, there is a green wall with an abstract curved pattern.
• The text in the panel reads: "And for their wickedness and falsehood, God sent down crows who… pecked out the stepsister's eyes. They lived out their days in shame and misery."

Panel 2:

• The adult male continues reading, while four children (two boys and two girls) sit in front of him, laughing and enjoying the story.
• One child shouts excitedly, "YAYYYYYY!"
• Below these two panels, there is additional text: "Focus-group testing fairytale endings on children was a mistake."

The overall tone mixes a dark twist on familiar fairy tales with humor, as the children's reaction contrasts with the grim subject matter.
