Interesting observations on the effects of the space-time continuum. When Dan-4 decided to shave his face (The oldest time period version of Dan) all other versions of Dan (Dan-1, Dan-2, and Dan-3) all observed the effects. They all liked the beard as they thought it made them look more sophisticated. Dan-4 said it was itchy. #AreWeThereYet #satire

Poor Dan-4 was so tired that he slept through most of October. And that’s the story of how Dan-1, Dan-2, and Dan-3 traveled back in time to help Dan-4 complete 13 books in 2013. #AreWeThereYet

Traveling back to October 16, 2014. This is when I began my first sketches for #AreWeThereYet. That year I worked on a total of 13 books. Dan-4 fell asleep in front of his computer a lot. The plan is to prevent the printing error before it has been submitted to the publisher. The time machine is running out of room. #SATIRE

Color proofs for #AreWeThereYet also turned out to be flipped upside down. Called the publisher to inform them that I came from the future to rectify the mistake. They did not believe me. I should not have led with that. I must go back further in time. #satire

Accompanied by Dan-2 we travelled back to July 15, 2015. The date when I/we received first color proofs of #AreWeThereYet. Let’s hope I caught the misprint in time! #satire

I have travelled back in time to March 10, 2016 to intercept past Dan before the mass signing of these books. It has been confirmed that they have been printed upside down! I must travel further back in time to warn earlier Dan in the past of the error. God help us all #AreWeThereYet

Godspeed my friends. If I don’t make it back, please tell my family that I love them! #satire #AreWeThereYet

I must go back in time to fix my book! I have planned accordingly! (This is all satire, of course) #AreWeThereYet

By my calculations it is possible to travel forward and back in time. Neil Degrasse Tyson may have conflicting math. #AreWeThereYet
