I'm fully expecting him to draw a quirky, likeable comic about aeroplane food at some point. Edit: VVVV - Oh god, that's even worse somehow. I really want to like his stuff but these are pretty lame. At least that one is actually political? Kegluneq fucked around with this message at 11:47 on Jun 8, 2013 |

Telegraph:  Indy:  Daily Express:  Shock horror Daily Express is celebrity news. _____________________________________________ Also news related to the other 3 cartoons today are about the NSA surveillance revelations. "Law-abiding" citizens have "nothing to fear" from the British intelligence services, the foreign secretary says. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22832263 President Barack Obama has defended newly revealed US government phone and internet surveillance programmes, saying they are closely overseen by Congress and the courts. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22820711 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWam4EWI48M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPewLiaCtlo Also on the Guardian one today in the bottom left with the piss into swag, is a little jab at Alex Jones who was on Sunday Politics yesterday (I'm guessing) or just general Bilderberg Group. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgBq6q4x8Fw 4:10 mark is when the interview starts, going full on  and kept getting told to shut up and wouldn't, ended up making Andrew Neil not being able to stop laughing.

My "joke" is so unfunny that I can't even allude to the wit (since it contains none) and have to resort to basically explaining what the image is, as if providing subtitles for the hard of seeing-cartoons. PRINCESS IS PREGNANT, CHAMPAGNE COMES IN A BOTTLE, BABIES DRINK FROM BOTTLES, IT IS A JOKE.

Is the dude who does the Express cartoons like the British equivalent to JRROSE! from the American thread? I've only been reading since Maggie died but my god the Express cartoons are like walking down the hall in an art gallery past Rembrandts and Picassos then suddenly there's a fingerpainting from the curators 4 year old nephew. Was he always like this?

Like the one with the baby bottle! serewit posted:Is the dude who does the Express cartoons like the British equivalent to JRROSE! from the American thread? Kind of, if JRROSE! was obsessed with the royal family instead of his local womens' sports teams. He obviously got the job pretty much for his love of the royals and otherwise milquetoast opinions, because his comics are really suited to the content of the Express in general.
