Comic #7262: sporting
Description
Here is a detailed description of the comic panel along with the transcribed text:
The panel features a nighttime scene over water with a ship silhouetted against a purple sky. The ship is engaged in some sort of fishing activity.
Text bubbles are present with the following dialogue:
-
Top bubble (from an unseen character): "God, it's not even sporting. Sonar finds one of legal size, we fire the mechanical harpoons, and it's over."
-
Middle bubble (from another character): "It was better in grandfather's time."
-
Bottom bubble (from the first character): "We can feed a whole city, Captain."
At the bottom of the panel, there is an additional line of text: "If Godzilla were real, we'd have made it industrialized meat by now."
The overall tone suggests a commentary on industrial fishing practices and the idea of larger mythical sea creatures not being a threat in an industrialized world.
