Comic Transcript

A more traditional comic page layout.

A jar of relish and a corndog ride horses against a backdrop of mountains and low-hanging sun. The relish's jar lid is vaguely hat-shaped, while the corndog wears a cowboy hat, black bandana-mask, and large pointy mustache.

Zoom from above on sign: WELCOME TO MUSTARDVILLE. A piece of paper is attached to the bottom right corner of the sign. It reads: HEROES WANTED ENQUIRE WITHIN.

The corndog and the relish look at each other.

Cut to a wide-frame shot of a very flat-looking town, with mountains in the background. A horse rests against a hitching post. A few buildings are silhoutted against the backdrop of the mountains. The corndog and the relish stand in front of a news stand as a squeeze-bottle of mustard holds out a broadsheet.

Zoom on broadsheet. In somewhat shaky and grainy type:

MUSTARDVILLE HERALD-TRIB-

On the left, a picture of a glass bottle of ketchup with a bowler hat cap, shady eyes, and a curly mustachio.
