Honestly I just scroll past british politoons because it's always just a bunch of melting wax figures and whatever metaphors are being conveyed by the nonsensical images only make sense if accompanied by a Ben Garrison level of .

Maybe they've been filtered before entering this thread, but they always seem like a competition in presenting the (admittedly inept) government in the most nightmarish and grotesque forms imaginable. There are, and the most tasteful of those politoonists are included. Besides mac Except right now the government is an indefensible pile of bollocks so youd be hard pressed to find anyone with two brain cells that supports them and isnt a tory ideologue.

You haven't seen many Brit politoons have you? All of our cartoons hate all of our politicians pretty much.

The one redeeming feature of Mac is looking for his dead wife's face that he draws into all his cartoons. Pity about all his actual opinions and beliefs.

People like interplay between regulars on the funny page. There's an April Fools thing where King Syndicate artists switch strips, and basically everyone has had at least some interaction with Patsis' Pearls Before Swine.

Kirschen posted:If you think that the dimwit in today's cartoon is Alfred E. Newman from Mad Magazine, you'd be wrong. Harvey Kurtzman, a cartoonist, and the original editor and creator of Mad first spotted the image on a postcard pinned to the office bulletin board of the editor of Ballantine Books . The image had, for years been used on comic postcards. In 1965 Mad was sued for copyright infringement by the widow of cartoonist Harry Spencer Stuff. She claimed it was a copy of Stuff’s caricature “The Original Optimist,” also known as “Me-worry?”, which he had copyrighted in 1914. Stiglich posted:My favorite AL team.

Holy poo poo did Rall manage to tell an actual joke about Trump that involved Obama without making GBS threads on Obama or implying that both sides are the same in any way? Too bad his art is still terrible. ^ I think it's meant to be "stealing the feather from their cap."
