It’s No Shakespeare…

Five-panel comic written and drawn drunk, as the title card proudly admits. In wobbly scribbled art, a sheriff robot guns down an outlaw robot for robbing the Pine City Stage even though the accused points out he has no arms. The final clean panel shows the creators, the artist passed out at his drawing table while the writer shrugs that they never promised Shakespeare.

Panel 1. Title card: "And Now We Present DRUNK-ROBOT. Written & Drawn DRUNK." Panel 2. In shaky, scribbled art, a sheriff robot points at a one-eyed robot: "You're wanted fer robbin' the pine city Stage!" The accused protests: "But I have no arms!" Panel 3. The sheriff robot draws anyway: "Then you leave me no choice!" and fires: "Pew! Pew! Pew!" Panel 4. The sheriff stands over the smoking, sparking wreck ("zzt!") and growls: "No one calls me 'mad dog'." Panel 5. In clean color art, the artist lies passed out at his drawing table next to a bottle, snoring "ZZZ...", while the writer at his computer shrugs: "Look, we didn't promise Shakespeare."
