Heathcliff, 12/5/25

I really enjoy today's Heathcliff for the way it manages to remain legible despite its one-panel nature collapsing a whole sequence of events into a single moment. Heathcliff tosses a coin into the well, makes a silent wish, garbage begins to fall from the sky in great, repulsive chunks, and a bird remarks on it: it's all drawn as happening simultaneously, but our minds can put everything in the correct sequence.
