A single-panel color comic by Madscott (madscottcomic.com), rendered in a muted gray and pop-art halftone style with colorful characters. A large purple blob-like alien lies on the ground holding a smoking pistol, grinning slyly. Smoke billows dramatically in the background. Facing it is a small, round blue alien with a single large yellow eye, two yellow horns, fanged smile, and hands confidently on its hips — apparently unfazed. The purple alien's speech bubble reads: "I can't believe they always fall for that 'we come in peace' line if B.S." A caption box at the bottom reads: "Hint: It was never going to be a fair fight." The comic plays on the classic sci-fi trope of deceptive alien first contact, with the twist that the seemingly more menacing alien has clearly come off worse in the encounter.

Stop assuming this will be fair. It was never going to be fair.
