I believe the current image is little more than a Wall of Text with a ribbon in it.

Since the other thread seems to have stalled out, I'll suggest, but I'm not particularly attached to it.:

Not so much, definitely prefer the ninja pic to that.

I'm not seeing the "spoof" part in the proposed replacement.

Anybody have a link to that Calvin and Hobbes comic where the Aesop was "Snow Goons are bad news"?

Non sequitur morals, which get sillier and sillier.

Ninja battle->literacy aesop is fairly non-sequitur to me.

What about a picture of the Wheel of Morality from Animaniacs, with a caption saying "Wheel of Morality, turn, turn, turn, tell us the lesson that we should learn."

When shrunk, doesn't look bad in its entirety. Open for wiki size.

Oh I see! *reaches for throat*

Another picture's been put up already, but I like the Nedroid strip better.

The problem with the Nedroid strip is that you'd need the whole thing to really get everything across (I'm not sure that just panels 2 and 4 would do it) and we can't do that.

We could probably use panels 2, 3 and 4 in a vertical arrangement. Or we could mail Anthony and ask for permission to use the whole thing.

Panel 1's a little hard to read. Using 3 panels and verticalizing would probably help readability a bit.
