Because of course companies never discriminate in their hiring in non-positive ways... Yeah reading over it again you're right. I see a Lester cartoon and just automatically assume it's racist.

I know portraying their side as the villains is a common theme in conservative cartooning but if there's a worse example of it than "see this old man trapped in razor wire? we're the razor wire!" I can't think of it.

Well good news: I am intended to do the Great Political Cartoonist Bracket for a 2nd time in March, so we can put that to the test. This time around I’ll be sure to better balance things so thread heavyweights aren’t going up against each other early, and provide maybe some upsets like Matt knocking out Dry Bones. poo poo, let’s get a robust list here. My intent was for active cartoonists, as more recent denizens of the thread may not be familiar with BAR BEE or Asay. But if the people want a true battle royale, then what the hell. Current List -Mike Lester -Gary McCoy -Michael Ramirez -Ben Garrison -Dry Bones -Hitch -Stiglich -Gary Varvel -Al Goodwyn -Lisa Benson -Clay Bennett () -Chip BoK -Eric Allie -Steve Kelley -Henry Payne -Scott Stantis -Chris Muir (yes, Day by Day is still running) -Stonetoss -Ted Rall -Dana Summers -Bob Gorrell (does it count if he hasn’t actively drawn original cartoons in years?) -AF Branco -Margolis & Cox -Scott Adams (of Dilbert infamy) -Son of Leak (Righto, what’s his name then?) -Matt Pritchett -Stan McMurty aka Max (he came back, right?) -Latuff And my laundry is done, so I’ll stop there. Throw your names in this greasy, moth-eaten hat.

They're all awful but I think Kirschen is the only one who has explicitly called for genocide. e: Clay Bennett probably doesn't belong. He used to be great but Trump's election broke his brain and he became mediocre. L. Ron DeSantis fucked around with this message at 03:11 on Jan 29, 2024 |

ZZT the Fifth posted:If Stonetoss qualifies at this point, so does Sinfest/Tatsuya Ishida. I kinda have to agree here. Dbd was banned because it couldn't be posted without censoring 80% of the image (that and the marital anal rape) but Stonetoss is just not posted because nobody wants to see it. If we're being consistent we wouldn't see Sinfest either. That said I don't like the idea of cartoons being banned from the thread for being terrible. That is kind of the whole point.

If it were me I'd like to see the playoff brackets limited to cartoonists published in papers, mainly because I don't want the semi-finals to default to Ben Garrison vs Stonetoss vs Sinfest vs Dry Bones*. Although I guess that also rules out Dilbert. edit: *I know this is published so will qualify either way. Trapezium Dave fucked around with this message at 05:25 on Jan 29, 2024 |

How about Ward Sutton. I know he is probably already in as Kelly, but outside of his parody political cartoons he is still active.

I doubt Sutton has a chance at winning "worst cartoonist", but then again, maybe it's good to have some good-to-mediocre people in just to see how fast they get knocked out. That being the case, here are a few more: Ann Telnaes Bill Bramhall Darrin Bell Dave Granlund Drew Sheneman Jeff Danziger Jeff Stahler John Branch Kevin "KAL" Kallaugher Kirk Walters Lee Judge Marty Two Bulls Matt Davies Matt Wuerker Mike Peters Pedro X. Molina Randall Enos

Is Telnaes “good-to-mediocre”? I’d call her “under-appreciated”. She’s consistently pretty good, occasionally really good, and she has a really unique style and gift for a kind of austere-caricature.

First time for me, is the purpose to determine who is the worst overall cartoonist among the people listed? I don't see how that's even a contest, Kirschen would probably win every single time, for having some of the worst art bar none, combined with the vilest possible opinions.
