Grand Ballroom of Doom
By July 18, 2022

Five panel comic from the series "Grand Ballroom of Doom," in which a white man with a shaved head and a white woman with bangs and shoulder-length curly hair have a conversation about an unexplained occurrence that happened prior to the comic's beginning. Beginning with "well there was clearly nothing we could have done," the two hold their palm of their hands upwards, shrugging their shoulders, reiterating how nothing could've been done. By the end, a third man says "let's do something!" to which the other two say "we'd love to but we've got all these hands!" The final panel shows the man and woman shrugging, surrounded by multiples of their exaggerated upturned palms.
