2: Principal Argument

Explanation
This comic satirizes the infamous The Simpsons episode "The Principal and the Pauper", one of the most controversial episodes of the entire show, in which Seymour Skinner outs himself as an impostor and leaves in shame, but is eventually persuaded to return while the real Skinner is evicted from Springfield. Needless to say, this plot sat poorly with many, from series creator Matt Groening to Skinner's voice actor Harry Shearer.

The author reinforces this by editing screencaps from the episode into a Nerf NOW!! comic where Morgan makes a questionable Mario comic. A second version of this comic features cutouts of the faces of Groening and Ken Keeler, the writer of the episode, who has defended it; their faces are respectively placed over Jane's and Morgan's.

The author writes
This strip, using the characters from Nerf NOW!!, is based on the controversial episode of The Simpsons, "The Principal and the Pauper." Fun fact: This strip actually mirrors the thoughts of the writer, Ken Keeler. With that in mind, I made a bonus version:



Question for discussion, is it better, worse, or equally as good as the original? (Credit goes to Gage Skidmore for the photo cut-outs.)

Original Nerf NOW!! strip: No. 1566 ("Morgan's Turn")
