12-20-2012 is Merlin’s Birthday, he lives backwards. The 20 and 12, denoting his birth year, are on the bottom of the star, just not seen in this comic.
“To avoid paradoxes the idea of splitting of dimensions into infinite earths (and universes) would have to happen.”+++++Or else when you go back, it all happens just as it did the first time—so you don’t actually change the past, since you were there earlier.
if your actions in the ‘past’ cause a splitting of dimensions then you havent time travelled, you just jumped universes. michael crichton’s TIMELINE deals with that. in essence time travel is impossible

A good deed transforms Merlin’s world from post-apocalyptic to verdant and thriving! Hoorah for the Go-Yo™!

At first I thought Merlin was in Centralia, PA!

So is this the aftermath of Boody’s dandy-daisy induced sneeze where he ticked off the bees? At least someone fixed it!

A pocket TARDIS. How convenient.

I was thinking more of something like Heinlein’s “By His Bootstraps” or “-All You Zombies-”

SHeesh! That last title wasn’t supposed to be strikeout, but had a dash before and after.

I could really use a Go-Yo this week…

If my observation is correct Merlin started in an area burned to a cinder, and since dragons “breathe” fire, then they might sneeze fire.
I think the temporal string is a cosmic string, and a time loop where time lines fold back on themselves.
