Conk
2006

A vibrant comic book panel featuring onomatopoeic sound effects such as "KERASH," "KRAK," "VEE BEEP VEEP," and "CONK" in bold, stylized lettering, suggesting dynamic action. The image is partially obscured by a white cloud-like shape in the center. The background shows abstracted illustrations of what appears to be a cityscape and a figure with yellow hair, indicating a chaotic scene. The panel is bordered by a green tape at the top and has rough edges, giving it a collage-like appearance.
