This one is for those office drones everywhere, dreaming of better things while stuck in mostly pointless meetings. To say I spent most meetings at my last couple jobs with my head in the clouds like this would be an understatement, and this is just one of many flights of fancy I had during said meetings.

As for the pop culture reference, Time Bandits was one of my all-time favorite childhood movies. I always envisioned after the end of the movie the young boy Kevin would use that Polaroid photo of the map to have his own solo adventures through time, and I often imagined where and when I would go if I were in his shoes. My personal top picks would be the time of the early Roman Empire, the Italian city-states during the Renaissance, America just before and during the Revolutionary War, and America 50 years into the future.

Anyway, many thanks to Terry Gilliam for the movie and the inspiration for today’s comic…
