There's a lot of text, which is really hard to follow, and is only tangentially related to the image it's showing. The other Webcomic options might work better. [1], [2] or panels 1+4 of this.

The current does seem a bit texty...not where I can look at the other suggestions right now.

1 is just ok, I can't tell how 2 is an analogy at all, but the third suggestion is great.

1.3's better than the current, definitely.

1.3 is great...I'd love to get the fifth panel in for the reaction, but that's probably not feasible.

1.3 is good.

Another vote or two for 1.3 and we can run with it.
