Perhaps semantics. But the reference to a “Giant ape climbing to the to of the skyscraper.” should really be a: “Giant Gorilla climbing to the to of the skyscraper.” Because King Kong (which I am almost certain the reference is regarding) is NOT! an ape; he/it is classed as a gorilla. Yes apes are primates and belong to the same genealogical family. But given the context and reference…
Alas, in The Netherlands there is nationwide ban on the sale and use of fireworks for the second year round, to ease the strain on hospitals and emergency services, caused by the covid-pandemic.
It’s always a tradition to read the Garfield December 31st comic (not that it’s the only one I read a year, that would be sad). Nostalgia in its purest, best, and fattest form.

A giant should not have to climb.

How tall was King Kong? He was 18 inches tall! It’s all just movie magic.

The visitors center in Hancock Tower in Chicago lets you look down on the exploding sky works.

I will leave an adverse comment here. I hate fireworks for what they do to wildlife and pets.
