Meet the Twins

Four-panel comic. Panel 1 shows a cityscape with a tall building named "Elite Towers". From the top floor, someone says "Well, if it isn't Arthur and Terry Ann, the Big-Box Twins! We don't see you here at the Capital Club much anymore." Someone answers "Hey, Dottie. Looking forward to your little event for the candidates next week." People walk, skateboard, and ride scooters on the sidewalk. An Arthur and Terry Ann truck goes by. Panel 2, set inside a dark, luxurious club. Dottie says, "Oh, we just like to do something for them at the club every year. I'm tickled that you are Diamond Sponsors again. Wasn't sure you would be given all the ... issues." Dottie is a skinny white woman with long blonde hair and big jewelry. She stands by a leather banquet with a white man and a woman in it. Arthur and Terry Ann look like siblings, with matching brown hair that has golden streaks. Arthur is dressed ruggedly and has a big gold watch. He's drinking milk. Terry Ann is even skinnier than the first woman. She has a vodka spritzer with olives. The sign behind them says "Capital Club Events." Panel 3: As Dottie leaves, she says "Well, ta then." Terry Ann says in an icy voice, "Bless her tiny heart." Arthur puts his hand on her shoulder and says "Don't worry, Sis. I've got an idea that will take care of those "issues," and Keep those girls from looking down their perfect little noses at us." Panel 4: Terry Ann says "Tobacco pays for a lot of plastic surgery. I never will understand why they think tobacco money is cleaner than retail." Arthur replies, "Or that a little caterwaulin' from unions and nimbies means we can scrape up the funds to sponsor her swar-fuckin'-a." The panel shows a Capital Club check presenter with a bill for bibb salad with salmon, a 16-ounce rare ribeye, 2 vodka spritzers, and 3 whole milk. The credit card tucked into the pocket has the Arthur and Terry Ann logo, just like the truck in panel 1.
