# Judge Magazine - "Judge" Comic Strip This nine-panel comic depicts a judge presiding over a courtroom, with an attorney (shown below) repeatedly presenting arguments or evidence. The strip appears to satirize courtroom procedure and judicial patience. The judge's expressions shift from attentive (panels 1-2) through increasingly exasperated (panels 3-6) to visibly agitated (panels 7-9), while the attorney below persistently gestures and advocates. The final panel shows the judge's frustration reaching its peak. The satire likely mocks either: verbose legal arguments that test judicial patience, an attorney's relentless persistence despite the judge's obvious annoyance, or the tedious nature of courtroom proceedings. Without date or specific case reference visible, the cartoon works as general commentary on judicial frustration with advocate conduct—a timeless institutional critique.
