Raso: Try cutting it for the big, flashy wing pull at the top of the first page, Setsuna calling herself a monster and Asuna saying it's cool. Those three images basically encompass the entire point. I still don't know if I'd really like the image, but I think that's the best you're going to get.
Anyway, while I'm ambivalent to Setsuna I do think we need a better image than the one that's there now.
Showing an actual girl with actual wings adds "nothing?" You really believe that?

Jet-a-Reeno!Well, considering that the text kindly informs us that there is a girl who has wings, no. It does not add anything.

Infinite Tree: an experimental storyWell, it's not necessarily wings. I think something other than wings would help it not get disproportionate amounts of wing examples while ignoring other thing. I should probably go trim the description.
It'd be nice to get quotes that don't involve wings too.

If people learned from their mistakes, there wouldn't be this thing called bad habits.I gotta say, that's pretty good. I do think it works better with two panels, though. There are basically two elements to the trope:
- "Woe! Radiation, Magic, and/or Applied Phlebotinum has made me a foul, misshapen mockery of a human! Woe, I say!"
- "Hey, I think that just makes you hot!"
The first panel helps underline that it's not like she's entirely comfortable with her situation.
What's the source of the image, btw? I'm intrigued....

Jet-a-Reeno!It's from Durarara.
If people learned from their mistakes, there wouldn't be this thing called bad habits.^It's from an anime. I dunno if there's a better version than that.

^But there is no reason to use it as an image. It would make a decent page quote. Clear+Concise > Clear.
Also, the last two speech bubbles are irrelevant, which isn't a plus.
