The image on Drunk with Power is a full comic. I don't have any replacement suggestions ATM, but it's got to go.

It's not illustrative anyhow.

Frame four by itself could work.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

[up] Because his facial expression shows the trope. It's not great but it's better than nothing.

I was actually referring to the commenter above you. I think their argument would be that the ref is just smitten with power but doesn't abuse it for his own ends. We probably should be looking for an alternative.

Last two panels maybe?

Clock is set.

[up] I don't think that's enough to really get the trope across.

Do we still not have any suggestions for this one? Because this Adventure Time pic might work:

[up]That looks like an image macro. Even if it quotes verbatim from the cartoon. although the picture itself might work without the text.

does a cop abusing his power fit the trope?

[up]I think that overlaps with another trope.

Plus, that's a bit of Talking Heads.

[up]That, and it also lacks the "drunk" part, he sounds more like a regular bully. I'd expect the kind of expression as the last panel of the OP or that of 9.

The last two panel of the OP might not be perfect, it's still better than nothing and better than any suggestion so far.
