No One Appreciates Great Art

Bobo is a genius--a tortured genius. That's because no one understands the meaning and depth that lie within Bobo's art. He is an ape of vision. As he sucks on a heater back in his studio, Bobo knows this is true. But he remembers the fate of Vincent Van Gogh--he might not be honored in his own lifetime. Or, worse, even after that.

Bobo is less fortunate than Beetle Moses, the artist who composed this cartoon.

I've not heard of that use of "heater" before. I think of it as a gun or weapon because of Star Trek ToS episode "A Piece of the Action", which would give an entirely different meaning to "sucks on a heater." OTOH, "Hepcats Jive Talk Dictionary" from 1945 defines it as "a big cigar", so perhaps John is simply more hep than I am.
