I feel like this Freefall strip (or at least, the last two panels of it) would be just a notch or two more descriptive than the current page image.

But IDK if the fact that it's a full strip (or close to one) renders it ineligible.

Does anyone else here actually know Fighbird beyond the "Is this a pigeon?" meme?

Question. If the character is acting OOC due to hypnosis or a magic spell, does that count? If so, I may have an idea.

Not really.

I don't see what's wrong with the current one to warrant a replacement. The current has her seem surprised/taken aback by his OOC-ness based on the dialogue, while your suggestion looks like he's just checking up on the other and barely seems surprised by the OOC-ness.

The current is better - they show the trope about equally well with similar reliance on text, but the current uses fewer panels and doesn't break our policy on fair use.

Keep current. I agree with Noa's reasoning.

Current is honestly kinda underwhelming, but as the suggestion is a full strip, keep.

clearly things are going well.

Current > OP.

I feel like the current is talking heads, but the suggestion is worse.

The suggestion is lateral change at best, and uses more than half a comic, so keep current.

The universe is under no obligation to make sense to us.

Current > suggestion

The current has plenty of consensus behind it. I'll update the tag; locking up.
