Ruben definitely puts in more work per strip than any other author…. Ray Bradbury’s version of the chaos butterfly is better, though.

You didn’t think so in the OLD timeline, barrycarter. But you wouldn’t remember that since history was changed. Curse you, chaos butterfly!

If Pixar’s “Up” had the dog yell “Porn” whenever he, you know, he, eh, well, gosh darn it Chaos Butterfly!

@Tommy1733 Yes! Although I think the versions I read (in comic books) was “A Sound of Thunder” (singular). Originally banned (as a comic book) and reprinted in Seduction of the Innocent.
