to get technical, it would take more than another panel or rewriting Panel 5 if you consider that the lone female character is only half there. Just doing the math…
Maybe the two women in this comic should be talking about the movie Alien. (Reference to the original D*kes to Watch Out For comic which was published in 1985 that introduced the Bechdel Test)
This does pass the Bechdel test, though. The focus of at least one conversation needs to be something other than a man. (The original example of Alien supports that interpretation.) “No man is mentioned” is an over-strict reworking.
You got a mention in Dark Side of the Horse this day (yesterday, but the same day as the toon I’m posting to): https://www.gocomics.com/mycomics/76520 (see panel six, I think it is)

My favourite media test is the Furiousa test, which looks at the type of people annoyed by a work online.

Some days this comic is one panel short of making sense to me, but I suspect the problem is with me

In my writing the Bechtel test is always there.
