Sawbones: Going Grey

An illustration of two blue snakes twisting around a radius and ulna bone topped with a handsaw coming off either side to form a caduceus staff. The snake on the left is wearing a red dunce cap and the snake on the right is wearing a red graduation cap. The background is a pop art style red to blue fade. At the bottom of the image it says “Sawbones” with “A marital tour of misguided medicine” written below that.

Of course, Justin doesn’t need any of these methods because he has surprisingly little grey hair for someone his age. As he points out. Repeatedly.
