Hey, these comments, the combination of them have made me realize that I myself do not "get" the pun here. For one thing, I did not see the dynamite first time around. I just thought it was a funny cartoon because the global warming caused so much water on the earth that even all cartoon balloons were submerged! But yeah! THERE IS A STICK OF DYNAMITE THERE!
If anyone can help me out here and explain the finer intricacies of this esoteric cartoon.... please feel free to enlighten!
Shark, I think the eye also is one of his most "secret" symbols. My take on the whole thing is that they aren't exactly "secret" when he "explains" them in some detail...and without the explanation, I doubt we would be in on the "significance" of the deal. What is the function of a symbol anyhow? Let alone a "secret" symbol...heh. I wonder what you all think...Anyhoo, he's funny even without all the indecipherables.

Is that a lit stick of dynamite in the bottom left corner of the panel?
I simply don't get the pun. :-(

There is usually an upside down bird in his comics too. I don't see it in this one though...
