Day of the Hunters

by Isaac Asimov

A midwestern professor tells a half-drunken story of time travel and the real cause of the dinosaur extinction.

— Michael Main

Because I built a time machine for myself a couple of years ago and went back to the Mesozoic Era and found out what happened to the dinosaurs.

“Day of the Hunters” by Isaac Asimov, in Future Science Fiction, November 1950.

The Treehouse #5

The 65-Storey Treehouse

by Andy Griffiths (story) and Terry Denton (art)

Each installment of Andy and Terry’s Treehouse series sees the house grow upward, but what if the house never had a proper building permit? No problem, if you’ve got a time machine in a wheelie trash bin! Caution: Important detours along the way may be necessary to save antkind and The Time Machine.

— Michael Main

“Don’t you see?” says Terry. “We’ll just travel back in time and get a permit for the treehouse.”
