"The Choice Is Yours" is my clever way of saying that I'm giving you a choice between three different opening panels.  They're all crappy, and any one of them alone would be even more noticeably crappy, but together their combined crap tends to alleviate the individual crappiness of each one.  Here, look at them:

Now, choose one and make a comic.  The comic must begin with the panel you choose, and it must be three panels long.  If you refer to the little girl by name, it must be "Sally."  Photoshop is allowed, but if you use it you will be disqualified.  If nobody enters this contest, you will be disqualified.

I will judge this contest in one week, unless I decide to judge it in two weeks.  If no more than two people have entered it by then, you will be disqualified.  If nobody enters by then, both they and you will be disqualified.

Okay, well, I guess this is the point where I announce that I'll be judging the contest soon and make the traditional call for "last-minute entries."

I guess someone else better enter so that one of these guys can win. I'll give it a shot:

I enjoyed all three of these entries and would like to thank everyone who entered.  To me--you're ALL winners.  You know, figuratively.  Not literally, of course. 

But I had to pick one, so I chose "Marketing niches, nooks, and crannies" by themushroom.

Take this contest...please!
