Spinning off from the image suggestion thread since there are multiple suggestions. This was the initial suggestion on the crowner suggested by Wasabi 2

Time to give Eggman a taste of his own explosive medicine.

However, on the thread, I argued that it might be stronger with a direct comparison with the original boss from Sonic 3 & Knuckles as a way to show the role reversal in Sonic Mania's boss. What do you think?

[up] Top panel of 1.2, Eggman is dropping bombs on Sonic from a flying machine. Bottom panel, Sonic is now in the machine dropping bombs on Eggman.

[up]If you have to describe it, it's not clear. I'm speaking as someone not familiar with the game, and all I can see is a lot of generic platform game stuff without any indication where I should look.

[up] Even better.

[up][up] I've never played the game either, but it seemed clear enough to me.

[up][up]Maybe separate the two panels a bit? But I still need to know what to look at to get it.

[up]Ok, here's a transparent gutter, and I recentered the characters to be in roughly analogous positions in the center with water spouts. Hopefully this helps the visual flow from top to bottom and connecting the characters in their reversed positions.
