While I find this image hilarious, it relies purely on the text.

I dunno, I think the combo is a decent Keep Until Better Image Suggested case.

[up] Disagree, I really don't get the trope from that. Pull.

This is from the examples, It's Donal and Dr. Strange from Marvel 1602 discussing Donal's crisis of faith. 1

Not a fan of 8, but I don’t see why this should be BUPKIS.

Any panel from this strip would be a great candidate I think.

12.1 is great. You can see the characters are angels, which provides a good contrast to what they're saying.

I prefer 12.2. It has less distractions than 12.1.

I like the setup/payoff of the two pics in 12...neither on its own seems like it's enough to me.

Don't think the second panel has anything to do with the trope (or if it does, it's done in a confusing manner since it looks more like a result of cupcake overdose than actual faithlessness/rationality).

Maybe 12 with panels 2 and 6? That sets up the cupcake thing better.

EDIT: Like this.

I also noticed the writing on the cupcakes when I was making this. That even covers the missing context from the dialogue.

Again, I do not think the cupcakes work.

This trope is about characters whose stubborn skepticism prevent them from acknowledging the supernatural even when there's clear evidence of it existing. The image implies they've been convinced through cupcakes instead, which feels like another trope entirely (like Forced Into Atheism or something).

12.1's hit the super-consensus point, so it's in and tagged. Caption?
