Wow Mad Magazine's taken an interesting turn. (I'm guessing it isn't Mad, the artist looks familiar though).

Probably his old man avatar cries over a Playboy magazine while a no-good kid streams XVideos. Maybe Hefner is shown in the sky with John Holmes and Larry Flynt, all giving a thumbs up. A newspaper calls him a brilliant innovator, and Korner Kelly says "Stroke of Genius."

This is actually perfect. Like, spot on. Highly visible protests, like MLK's civil disobedience which famously blocked highways (Conservatives have a hard time remembering this fact so it's great to see McCoy giving it a nod), are designed to prevent access to a callous and willfully ignorant state of "normalcy". That's the entire point of such protest: to deny the unaffected and uncaring everyman the opportunity to ignore the suffering of his fellow man. By taking a knee during the anthem, their understated action has now gotten national attention, impossible to ignore any longer. Though so many would wish to turn a blind eye -- to say "it's not MY problem!" and drive on -- they are now, at long, long last, being confronted with the unavoidable truth. By inconveniencing the privileged white middle class enough to disrupt their daily schedule and prevent selfish normalcy, social traction can be gained. This is the most AGC cartoon I've ever seen from McCoy. It's like he's perfectly hit on the soul of this kind of protest, but still thinks it's bad because at the end of the day he's still being slightly inconvenienced. (Except even less so because seeing someone kneel on TV for a few moments is even less intrusive than being blocked on a road).

At times I feel like if Sutton ever retires Kelly, this thread could crowdsource new comics weekly and no one would notice the difference.

I'm a much happier person by letting go of any expectation that saying something smart to someone will have any positive impact. From social media: "I have no idea where he stands on the subject." -Someone that is staring directly at a cartoon depicting his stance on the issue

Private Speech posted:It looks a bit too much like: I don't think these people find anything uncomfortable about that kind of salute. Regarding Viz, it's always been a bit more politically on the nose than you might expect for what is basically an obscene parody of the Beano. Its greatest achievement came around the time of Maastricht when it ran a spoof tabloid article about how EU bureaucrats planned to standardise the size and shape of people's turds. 20 years later, reality caught up with satire. Pants Donkey posted:Hugh Hefner is dead, so get ready for tepid obit cartoons. So is Paul Horner, the fake news rear end in a top hat who invented the "paid protesters" story. I wonder how Garrison will spin the OD.

In a dark graveyard marked "Presidential Dreams", as Hillary Clinton struggles to keep from being pulled through the front gates, a hand punches out of a grave clutching three crinkled sheets of paper. "Three pages!" croaks Carly Fiorina,"Threeeee paaaagessssssss...."

loquacius posted:Jesus Christ He definitely does - his style is the grotesque hyper exaggeratedness. His subject matter and beliefs are terrible, but I've always thought he has a unique and distinct style, at least when portraying people he disagrees with. The thread often shits on him saying "he doesn't know how to draw! His Obama looks like a worm!" But that's absolutely the point. His understanding of how his comics will look in print when he does a mass of crosshatching is also bad, but overall he has one of the better art styles of politoons. I'd just rather he not have The Worst Opinions to convey.

Not to mention his penchant for making cartoons using a lot of dark colors, which just come out as unreadable black smudges when they're printed

Xander77 posted:No. He just can't draw people (any longer). Agree, disagree, they're all grotesqueries. Particularly chins, which he is now utterly incapable of portraying. His Dubya was just as poo poo. Apart from Obama where his choice of not using the same style of linework as in everything else makes it seem weird, those pictures show he draws human caricatures very well
