ALT First page of the comic, consisting out of two panels. The first one shows a comic book series titled "Incredible People!" with its covers portraying autistic people as superheroes, with flashy taglines such as "His autism gave him the power to draw perfectly!", "Saving the world? Her special interest!", "Iron will of the autistic athlete!", "Headhunted by the aliens? The next evolution in humanity!" and "Disabled or differently abled?" A hand holds one of the volumes, portraying a programmer that holds a laptop and thinks about coding, with tagline "Incredible focus! Logic, speed and focus beyond your understanding! Can the man with the technical mind protect you from history's biggest cyber attack?". Second panel portrays our protagonist Riley, an androgynous person with shoulder-length brown hair and cat eye glasses, holding the latter book with a pensive look and saying "Superpowers? It sounds swell on paper, but reality isn't so cut and dry".

ALT Second page of the comic, consisting out of three panels. Riley is holding the comic which shows the programmer trying to get rid of a computer virus. The caption says “John Autism reaches for his trusty laptop” while John himself thinks “Surely i must find some way to defeat this deadly computer virus!” and then says “THINK, JOHN! What can only my unique perspective see?”. Below is Riley still holding this comic and saying “Why do autistic characters always have to be so over-the-top? Why can’t they ever just be regular people? Most of us aren’t world-savers of geniuses. We don’t have superpowers that make us “inredible people”.” Third panel. They say, with a sarcastic look and with devil horns on them: “Everything i hear about myself is one of two things — either 'Autism is bad and something is wrong with you!'" and then continue but with angelic halo over them: “Or 'look at the amazing things this autistic person can do, would you believe they’re autistic!?'”

ALT Third page of the comic consisting of 4 panels. Riley continues their speech: “Every Tom, Dick and Harry in the world is being told the same things about me. I hope you can understand why the first one is a load of horse pucky and quite demoralising to wake up to every day, but it may surprise you to learn that 'autistic success stories' can have a similar negative result.” Second panel. Riley is running, sweating, and panting with their eyes spiraling out of stress. The caption says “So it seems like in order to not feel like a burden, you’ve always be working harder than everyone else…”. Third panel. Riley suddenly trips over. The caption says “But what happens when you fall short?”. Fourth panel. Riley falls face down onto the ground with a loud SLAM. The caption says “You end up feeling like garbage”.

ALT Fourth page of the comic consisting of 4 frames. Riley gets up from the ground and says “It’s valid for autistic people to want to share how they’ve managed to overcome their disadvantages. And I get that the allistic people who support us want to encourage us. But autism isn’t as simple as 'good' or 'bad', it just is." Second panel. Riley is adjusting their glasses and says "It makes us different in some ways that are handy, some ways that mean we need a little more support, and many ways in which we just dang well… are. It’s different for everyone.” Third panel. Riley is holding another comic book, saying “What’d really be swell is to see some more news and stories focusing on autistic people. Just... being.” The comic is titled "checkin' him out, a neurodivergent love story" with the cover depicting two guys blushing. On the last frame they look at a tall building from below, saying “We shouldn’t be expected to be incredible people just to be treated with dignity”.
