Not sure. For years it was, maybe, my cartoon modern Plato's Charioteer of the Soul, with 'good horse' and 'bad' horse. (I made this using an ancient vector drawing app - kind of a software version of the 'bad horse'. These days I use Illustrator, more like the 'good' one.) https://t.co/ELXjuh4biC

Epistemic LARP'ing. In an media-saturated information age, a young man's thoughts turn to confabulating a basis for self-actualization. (You'd think a QB could base self-esteem on sheer aptitude for tossing the ol' pigskin. But I get it. It's in Nietzsche.)

Digital restoration makes this panel extra lurid. The artist knew the guy fooling with his watch, black against the yellow void, would emphasize their absurd condition. (From the early Beckett play, 'Waiting for a Dame Who's An Expert Swimmer, Easy on the Eyes, and a Cop".)

Two more episodes! "Lullaby in Frogland" and "The Ringing of of the Bell". (It's hard to draw frogs that look Seussish from the front. Their noses aren't right.)

Episodes 3 and 4! (I dunno whether I'm going to make it.)

I just realized the movie poster for the 1979 "Wings" documentary includes an homage to the 'wings over the world' sky behemoths from "Things To Come" (1936). Philip Castle did like to have his SF fun. https://t.co/6nEvuXTA0k

In my culture, we refer to the Kwisatz Haderach as the 'Chibi Gigachad'. https://t.co/VK1mO6lUDk
