The Doctor would have to intervene

It would be a DEFCON 1 crisis, at least. Possibly an Extinction Level Event.

If time travel were possible or ever to become possible in the future, we would not exist. Which proves that it never will be possible. And it is definitely better that way.

Kevin probably couldn’t make anything any worse ;p.

Captain Squirrel is NUTZ about fighting crime.

Oh well, Captain Squirrel needs a worthy adversary.

Time traveling is way too mind boggling and confusing for me. I think I’ll stick to my own time period.

Having a quick learning curve in kinesthetic intelligence (one’s hand in drawing) plus the ability to imagine images in one’s mind are super helpful—not strictly necessary, but they sure pave the way. Otherwise the time investment can be great.

Back in 1965 there really was on Saturday mornings cartoon Secret Squirrel on TV

The two best times to start learning a skill are 10 years ago or today.

We all live in a BIG time machine moving steadily forward in an orderly fashion. No wibbly wobbly or timey-wimey Tom-foolery stuff. It’s more fun to imagine and write stories about than the reality of it would be.

The Time Machine is doable, is the practicing that may be an issue…

If Kevin were to start working on it now, he could get 10,000 hours of practice in before he turns 20. But how long would it be before he got bored with it and quit?

I’m not sure Miles is right. We all have different talents, and maybe drawing just isn’t one of Kevin’s talents.

Imagine if practicing drawing comics every day for years always did have such results! After all, there’s no shortage of professional cartoonists on GoComics and elsewhere who have been doing their strips for years and still can’t draw worth spit. Practice may be essential, but it doesn’t make perfect without talent being there to begin with.

Is it just me, or are there four fingers and a thumb in panel four drawing the comic?

It’s never too late to start over!
