The image on Harmless Electrocution is blurry and hard to make out. I think we should do a quality upgrade here.

Or, in the case that isn't feasible, I can offer this one as an alternative. Actually this is a pretty easy one to find examples for on GIS.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

I think it may have been taken from this...I don't really have a problem with it but I'm open to suggestions. Not really crazy about Spidey/Electro.

I don't find the current unclear at all, so it's better than the suggestion.

I think the current image is clear enough, although it's possible a better image could be found. I don't see the suggestion as being a better image because it's more like total electrical immunity rather than being shocked but unharmed.

Overall, I say keep until better image suggested.

[up] I like that version better than the current.

[up][up] Looks less blurry. Also, maybe the shot after the electrocution could be added as well.

I just found than via Google, I originally suggested it for Amusing Injuries, any after screen shots would probably have to be taken from the episode itself.

Luckily it is episode 1, unluckily I do not have the episode.

6 would be good if it survives shrinking to wiki size. I think adding the aftermath image would probably improve it overall by better depicting the whole trope.

Ok found the ep. [1][2][3] or Option 2 [4][5][6]

Any editing will have to be done by someone else, I do not know how.

Is there a way to show "harmless" without doing two frames?

I don't think so, the smoking could easily be done by fire and the smoking is what tells that it was 'harmless'.

Two-image version of 11.1 and 11.2, edited for wiki size.

The first should probably be brightened, since it looks weird to have a flash that dark.

17 is good...undecided on if I like it or the first panel by itself better.

Yeah, just like 17. Though the caption should remain the same or be changed to "Shocking, isn't it?" (which is actually Professor Oak's dialog in the scene).

I'm fine with either two- or one-panel versions. It's just to chop it off if we're going for one panel.

On the other hand, one panel might be small enough for a png instead, if it makes a difference. 17 wasn't.

The clock is way up on this one. I've gone ahead and swapped in the most recent pic; caption discussion can happen in the dedicated thread. Locking up.
