Panel 1:
A building labeled "FNN" (Fairmount News Network) is shown with a banner displaying the network's logo. A yellow narration box reads:
Narration: "You’d never know it, but the Fairmount News Network is in chaos."
Panel 2:
Inside an office with multiple desks, workers look panicked and distressed. Some hold their heads, others gesture as if shouting, and a security guard seems trapped. Speech bubbles are empty.
Narration: "Inside: panic, pain, and pandemonium... without a peep!"
Narration: "Workers are trapped at their desks, unable to phone for help."
Narration: "Security guards are stuck inside invisible constraints."
Panel 3:
A dramatic reveal shows a mime in a black beret, striped shirt, and suspenders stepping forward with a menacing pose. A large caption introduces him:
Narration: "Presently, the menace behind the mayhem steps out of the shadows..."
Large Text: "The ANTI-VOXXER"
Footnote: "Note: 'Vox' is Latin for 'voice.'"
Panel 4:
The newsroom set is shown with anchors being blown away by a mysterious indoor wind, while the mime approaches.
Narration: "A mysterious indoor wind blows the anchors away from the news desk as he approaches!"
Narration: "He has the rapt attention of the city — and the nation!"
Panel 5:
The Anti-Voxxer gestures dramatically while holding a piece of paper. On-screen text identifies the situation.
Narration: "There have been better-thought-out schemes..."

VILF: It’s a Go!
We’ve reached our goal!I’ll be placing the order next week, so I’ll still take
preorders over the weekend.
Thanks to everybody who made this happen!
In other news… Kern posted the following in the
forums:
Just a thought, but…*if* this is going to be a limited edition run, and there’s going to only be 35 made… What are your thoughts on maybe signing the shirt for us forum members that have ordered one? Or perhaps a lil’ ‘certificate of authentisity’ numbered in the order of ordering?Well, I
can’t say that this will be a limited-edition run. If funds allow, I may try to sell these at conventions next year. However, if you want me to sign your T-shirt, just drop me an e-mail or post here using Blogger. Please don’t use the Shoutbox for this, because I’ll never be able to keep track of it that way.
And, I will definitely print a numbered Certificate of Authenticity in the order the preorders were received.
