Some things pair perfectly.
The comic is four equally-sized panels. In the first panel, an octopus sprawls out with the label 'OCTOPUS' above it. In the second panel, a tripod sits normally under the label 'TRIPOD.' In the third panel, an octopus is posed awkwardly, with stiffly vertical legs in a similar position to the tripod in the previous panel, and labeled 'OCTOPOD.' The fourth panel shows a tripod posing in the same position as the octopus from the first panel, with the label 'TRIPUS' above it.
