This is a drawing of two cartoonish figures. The figure on the left has an oversized head, bulging eyes, and a helmet; they are running towards the right with a startled expression. They are holding an object that resembles a large knife. Below this figure, a small dog is running. To the right, another figure with an elongated face and wearing a hat is shouting while raising one arm and holding an object in their other hand. The background consists of cloudy shapes and a barren landscape. The drawing style and expressions convey a sense of humor.
