A single panel comic in black and white. A plate of cookies. There are triangular pastries called Hamantashen, as well as sugar cookies shaped like MAGA hats with “MAGA” on them.
Of the many folk explanations for the shape of the Purim treat Hamantashen, one is that Haman wore a 3-cornered hat.

Circular illustration made up of flat colors - blue, red, orange, light orange, black, and brown. In the center is a Shiba Inu face with a fierce expression. She’s biting on a golden crown. Around her is the phrase “Sic Semper Tyrannis,” and underneath is the same phrase written in Japanese Katakana.
New work. Deeper explanation is here. www.patreon.com/posts/new-il...
To sum up though, I'm taking the Doge shiba - Kabosu-chan - and making her an anti-dictator/anti-king symbol. "Sic Semper Tyrannis" means "thus always to tyrants" (a dog will bite your crown off you)

Ink drawing of Sailor Moon punching Elon Musk in the gut while he's doing his "roman salute." A MAGA hat flies off his head. Text around it says "In the name of the moon, I'll punish fascists!" The background is hot pink.

Panel 1: A room with two alien-like, blob-like forms. One is at a desk taking notes. The other is the instructor at a monitor. “Welcome to shapeshifter orientation! In this session, I’ll go over the crucial knowledge needed to flawlessly emulate—“ Panel 2: “—the HUMAN MALE. Now, the body is quite simple - but clothing is a bit more complex. Pay attention closely, because even small deviations can blow your cover.” The blob points to an outline of a male form on the monitor. Panel 3: Examples of shirts. One has a dress collar for a button down. The other is a blouse with a bigger collar. “Many shirts have what’s called a “collar.” Be aware of the correct shape for a male shirt.” “Okay, got it.” Panel 4: two male heads have bow ties. One wears it on his head, one wears it on his neck. There are a couple fancy bows with “x”s next to them. A checkmark is next to a plain black bow. “This is a “bow.” It is worn at the top of the body, but not TOO high. Watch out for the shape: It must be this shape, and nothing else.” “Uh.. sure. Got it.” Panel 5: Examples of many different types of shows with “X”s next to them: a ballet shoe, platform shoe, sparkling shoe, dance shoe, etc. Another shoe is a plan dress show with a high heel. The shoe with a checkmark next to it is a low heel plain dress shoe. “Objects called “shoes” must be worn to protect the lowest appendages. However - only a few shapes can be worn. The bottom of the show must not exceed a certain height. Failure to comply will subject you to mockery - or WORSE.” “Wait, but.. there’s so many fun shapes. I can’t wear ANY of those??” Final Panel: Two pairs of disembodied legs. One has long-ish shorts, the other has a skirt. “Tubes are worn around human legs. However, the male may only wear a garment of two tubes. If you are seen wearing only ONE tube, you may be VIOLENTLY ASSAULTED.” “Oh, come ON!!!”
Right? It's so simple.

A brilliant rhetorical trap was laid.
