It's Kelly. Just keep going through the archives until there's a comic about Europe or the French. There will be a beret.

Click my question mark! Here are three more:  1. 2."Stay focused... Act as if nothing happened... Laugh... Most of all, laugh" The artist's stand in is a (normal) cat, here anthropomorphised.  3. by Lisa Mandel"Who want my cartoon in support of Charliiiiie? It's nice, it's fresh from todaaaay!" On the panel: Prices 1 pencil = 2€ 1 AK-47 = 4€ Paradise = 4€ God = 4€ Dead artists = 4€ per unit Terrorists = 6€ per unit (extra for an AK) Virgins = 4€ per unit Prophet caricature = 100 € + health insurance I love cartoons about cartoons.

As far as I can tell Canada only sent our Minister of Public Safety, yet for some reason I'm hard pressed to find cartoons talking about how Stephen Harper is Soft on Terror.

As an aside, one thing I find interesting about that cartoon is whilst it is an obvious reference to the socialist fraternal kiss it could also be seen, from a surface reading, as incredibly provocative to traditional Muslim societies where homosexuality is outlawed. It is an example of where mixing different audiences and cultural touchstones leads to some additional depth to a cartoon. The statement of solidarity with a community after an attack by some extremists could be read as a further attack against some of its values.

That cover was really good, but I wonder if the survivors now in charge of the mag thought that something like that was kind of confrontational, and that there were already plenty of people being confrontational for them. They are in a unique position to spread their message, and this is more of a re-conciliatory one.

Edit: I got to thinking. Another well-thought out thing about this front page is that it effectively disarms anyone trying to use this as an excuse to commit hate crimes. When the target of the crime you pretend to represent says that all is forgiven, it gets difficult trying to justify it. (They'll find an excuse anyway, but in the broader sense) Broken Cog fucked around with this message at 23:44 on Jan 12, 2015 |

This is a great cartoon for getting right into the heart of the whole 'were they islamaphobes or equal opportunity offenders" issue that's played out here, all over twitter and, well, everywhere. Even though its original work, it is celebrating Hedbo as someone who ruffles all feathers and who is a force for equality, peace and, ultimately, unity - not just anti-muslim. All while being a touching memorial. An honest to god good cartoon.

Is this supposed to be in solidarity with Snowden? I might be missing the message because all I'm seeing is "at least the US isn't killing its whistle blowers it's going after them through the court of law." I could be very wrong though, I think my opinion on Snowden probably isn't shared very widely around here.

Journo is Australian slang, the others are just to match Hebdo

"Whistleblo" is about Snowden; "Bloggo" is about Raif Badawi, "Palestine Journo" might be about many different cases.

Yeah, of course he is. He breached a legal contract. He released classified information. Doesn't matter if he didn't give it to another nation or a terrorist organization, he did something with it that he said he wouldn't when he signed a contract to work for a company employed by the United States government.
