    That’s probably because the artist is likely to be right handed and so oriented everything to the right hand side of the comic. If they’d oriented everything the right hand side of the characters, that would mean placing everything on the left of the comic, which might’ve felt wrong to the artist.

      Or it reads better than the mouse being on the correct side. If you’re going to wildly speculate about others, assuming incompetence is a really shitty thing to do.

        putting the mouse on the other side would have hidden it from view, obstructed by the monitor. future boy in control of the pc would be a little less apparent. and it looks better having the time machine left vs flipping the entire image. it’s a picture, but i think most people would still scan it left-to-right and the time machine should be ‘seen’ first.
