A black-and-white spotted dog stands by a fire hydrant on a dark sidewalk, with a thought bubble showing an idealized version of itself bounding across a sunny green field. The dog thinks proudly, "I have a central nervous system complex enough to allow fantasies!" A caption beneath reads "Dog fantasies." In the votey aftercomic, a tired, bearded man lies in bed thinking wistfully, "They should let me write Garfield" — his own modest fantasy.
