Heathcliff by Peter Gallagher for January 31, 2022

He’s trying to eliminate "past"ilence.

That’s as good advice as any I’ve received today.

We are all in trouble now.

He’s off to look for his lost ham and meat helmets.

I’ll remember that when I get a cat.

a mantra to live for

Is he going to try and eliminate the existence of Garfield?

Why not? What’s he going to do, find more hams to drive around, or play with the garbage ape?

Heathcliff fell off the cliff years ago and became surreal so slowly we hardly noticed.

I could have told you that!

“and who better embodies the definition of imagination if not a simple man. a cartoonist, who puts his ideas to paper so that they may live on, so that our children, and our children’s children, and their children’s children’s children can access the wealth of ideas that have accumulated thus far.They will plug themselves into an information grid, and they will have access. They will read every Garfield comic, 80,000 years from now, a child will see a simple Jon Arbuckle, reading a newspaper. He will feel around for something, but that something is not there. He will lift his head and think.“Now where could my pipe be?”.and Garfield will be smoking the pipe, and Jon will yell “GARFIELD!”.and what then? 80,000 years from now?The child reading this comic will smile. and that smile will transcend space and time and the physical limitations of this existence, whatever they may be, however many dimensions exist.There will always be Garfield. and there will always be its creator. Jim Davis”

Great Time Machine Gallagher! Rod Taylor Red Chair is a Nice touch.

A cat with a time machine would make a great story arc. If only Heathcliff did story arcs.

Not even a watch?

I like how they’re not doing anything to stop him. Like they’re already at the end of any misadventures.

From the way Grandpa Nutmeg said that, he must be worried that Heathcliff is probably going to go back in time to mess things up, like maybe get rid of dogs.

Who built that? Also i think we might have a week based off a time machine

Words to live by.

That looks strangely like the Nautilus from Disney’s “10,000 Leagues Under the Sea”.

Jules Verne would like that
