   This comic inspired me to write Trouble Shooters [spinoff crossover between Superbook and Flying House].

       He’s keeping the aliens busy outside so they don’t interupt, of course.

       Oh, the Doctor was involved. And that’s all we’re going to say about that.

   The only reason Doc Brown isn’t there is because he went to December 25, 0000, when Jesus would be around six and a half.

     There is no year zero. BC 1 went straight to AD 1.

   And Jesus wasn’t born on Dec 25th. That’s winter solstice. Christmas was put there to compete with pagan religions.

     Actually, according to some study based on where the stars were then, Jesus was born in mid-June.

     “because he went to December 25, 0000, when Jesus would be around six and a half.” Emphasis added.

     This was already covered in the original comment.

   First and foremost, you’re probably the most versatile artist I’ve seen in the webcomic world. Also, I particularly like the inclusion of Animaniacs in this because rather than traveling time, they just inexplicably showed up to the damn manger singing.

     Unfortunately, the Animaniacs reference is the only fictional reference I get.

   There should be some nod to The Doctor though, perhaps just have the TARDIS parked next to one of the horses in the background.

    Is that McGee?! Man, McGee and me nearly made an artist out of me. Of course, I wanted to draw the evil robot, Jawbreaker (from this episode), and not McGee. And somehow I was still terrible at building Rube Goldberg machines in Applied Science and Technology class in High School.

    Only missing the Hanna Barbera’s The Greatest Adventure: Stories from the Bible. Good ol’ Derek, Margo, and Moki. I use to watch them at church along with Superbook and McGee and Me.
