In this vibrant, surreal birthday scene, picture a bustling party atop a giant, colorful pinball machine. The pinball table stretches out like a futuristic cityscape with metallic flippers acting as skyscrapers and bumpers transformed into spinning dance floors. At the center of the party, a 20-year-old boy named Dan, with a whimsical resemblance to the boy-next-door charm found in Schulz's Peanuts or Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes, is joyously dancing atop a massive birthday cake, which is designed like an ornate carousel, spinning gently under a canopy of twinkling lights. The cake has tiers that look like rotating gears, each tier painted with vivid scenes depicting Dan's favorite hobbies—like skateboarding with Astro Boy and conversing with a cheeky Calvin and Hobbes tiger.

Floating in the sky above is a series of fluffy clouds, which form the letters spelling out "Happy Birthday Dan!"—a nod to the majestic dreamscapes of Winsor McCay's Little Nemo. Each cloud-letter is adorned with tiny, fluttering cartoon birds holding streamers and balloons. A gigantic, laughing moon in the style of Larson's The Far Side oversees the festivities, casting a whimsical light over the scene. The pinball machine's scoreboard in the background, lit up with a neon glow, whimsically displays the score "20", adding to the playful narrative of reaching two decades of life. Surrounding the pinball machine are cartoonish characters inspired by Eisner’s graphic novels and Spiegelman’s expressive figures, all celebrating with confetti poppers and animated toasts, ensuring that Dan’s 20th birthday is a masterpiece of joyous, surreal fantasy.
