I tried and cannot find info on the source of this comic. Reverse image search turns up nothing, and I didn’t have any luck with the exact text at the bottom either.
If I’m reading the signature right, it looks like the cartoonist is G.B. Inwood. It’s likely early 1900s based on the style.
I commented here first, and didn’t realise that someone evidently lifted your whole post:

(unless that’s your alt)
That’s not me, but I generally don’t have an issue with cross-posting because it’s a good way of spreading content around the fediverse. I suppose since they didn’t delete my note in the post body, that could be confusing, lol
It’s strange that it’s not showing up as a crosspost though. Usually there’s an indicator in the UI.
Well, okay, but at least a proper attribution might be nice. Maybe in this case it’s not a big deal, but for someone who put real effort in to a post…
Btw in the other thread, someone has now found a book where the cartoon appeared.
True. And that’s amazing! I wonder how they managed to find it.
Happily, I asked them, and they broke it all down. Check that thread I linked, please.
And now for something completely different, “The Riker Maneuver”:

Omg, why is this so good, and why am I just now seeing it?
