Context: This comic is poking fun at how movies and TV shows love to make medieval people look filthy and miserable. The director in the panel literally adds a bucket of 'pre-shit manure' to make the scene look 'medieval enough'. In reality, people in the Middle Ages had bathhouses, washed their hands, and didn't all die at 35. It's a jab at how Hollywood ignores actual history for a grim aesthetic.
