Panel 1: Behold what I call "the unseen leg cheat," folks. That occurs as the cunning (or unscrupulous) comic artist "cheats" when not showing the legs of side-by-side characters and shows them at incorrect relative heights in order to fit 'em both in a single shot. See, there's no way in hell that the towering Syndablook's groin should be at roughly the same level as Emp's unless he's standing in a hole or kneeling to talk to her. (Then again, maybe he really is kneeling to talk to her.) Note that this cheat is possible because we're not seeing their full-length figures next to each other, hence the "unseen leg" bit.

Panel 3: I do rather like the neologosm "agnosticape," gotta say.

Tomorrow, this "anthology-format" story jumps to a thematically related but very different scene.
