Who speaks on which side
Batman Slapping Robin is a 1960s comic panel: Batman strikes Robin, and captioners later turned it into a shut-up format. The foolish statement sits with Robin, on the left, in the direction of the hit. Batman’s line is the correction, and it should be short enough to feel like the slap: a rule, a fact, a “no.” The painted impact is already there. You do not need a sound effect in the words. Some rooms will only see an adult striking a boy. Those rooms should use another still.
Robin can run a little longer, because he is the setup: the eager, wrong idea. Batman should sound like an impatient mentor stopping a sentence, not like someone opening a lecture. Polite disagreement wastes the panel. The costumes still have to make sense, sidekick and mentor, or the slap has no relationship to hang on. If Batman is the one saying the foolish thing, the hit has no target.
Keep type above the heads or in the sky. Letters on the yellow burst hide the contact that explains why the second line is allowed to be rude. A five-part argument will not fit a smack. If the correction needs citations, it belongs in a thread. Epic Handshake is the page where two sides agree. This panel is one side ending the other side’s sentence. A campus sign is for a claim you are inviting people to dispute. Here the dispute is already over.
Robin: “we should rewrite it during the incident.” Batman: “no.” The foolish line can run a little longer, because it is the setup. The correction should feel like the slap: a rule, a fact, a short stop. A lecture wastes the panel. The costumes still have to read as sidekick and mentor, or the hit has no relationship. If Batman is the one saying the foolish thing, the hit has no target.

The saved JPEG is quality 0.92. Canvas captions are capitals, white, black-outlined, Impact first. A one-word correction stays a slap after that treatment. A paragraph from Batman becomes a speech bubble that covers the burst. Open the download and confirm the contact is still visible. The file is a still of the panel, not a flip-book.
Give Robin the eager wrong idea in one slightly longer line, and give Batman a stop that could fit in a single breath. “No,” a rule, or a fact. A lecture turns the slap into a speech, and the panel is a shutdown. Check the costumes still read as mentor and sidekick. If the foolish line is on the wrong side, the hit has no target. Export and look at the yellow burst before you read the words. Letters on the burst hide the contact that makes the rudeness make sense. Some rooms will only see an adult striking a boy. Believe them and use another still. This is not the picture for a citation or a five-part argument. Those belong in the thread. The panel ends the sentence. Agreement between equals is a handshake. A claim you want disputed is a sign. Here the dispute is already over.
