Panel 1: In
the title panel of this Sunday-style colour comic, a smirking Casey
drags Marie past a signpost pointing in two directions: towards "West
of Bathurst by Kari Maaren" and towards "Actual Work." Naturally, Marie
wants to go in the first direction.
Panel 2: Marie sits at a table, books spread out before her. She stares despondently at them.
Panel 3: She picks up a book.
Panel 4: She begins to build a book tower.
Panel 5: The tower gets taller.
Panel 6: The tower is complete. Marie makes a "ta-da!" gesture at Casey, who is watching.
Panel 7:
Casey: And where is all the work that you have done today?
Marie [walks away]: Don't ruin the moment.
Alt-Text: Her name is Ozymandias, king of kings: look on her works, ye Mighty, and despair!
