Alrighty, it's Giles time. Carl Giles was a pretty drat good editorial cartoonist between the 40s and the 70s, did pieces mainly for the Daily Express.  His cartoons were mostly like this, single panel with a caption and the understanding that his readers would have the spare time to go over all the action.  As far as political leanings went, he was usually on the left, but occasionally would hint towards centre-right on a few issues. Here we see him demonstrating situational irony - for those who can't see it, the fellow on the left is protesting the conditions of ambulance drivers and encouraging the strike.  This one showcases the regulars of his comics - the family. You'll see this lot in a great deal of his comics alongside Chalky the schoolteacher. Pay attention to that loving grandma.  Just look at that. In any case, Giles was super popular as editorial cartoonists go. He even got a bronze statue of one of his characters made and placed in front of his old workstation in Ipswitch!

So, uh, are we going to do anything about this? Sign a petition, have a whip-round to grab cash for the families they left behind? It doesn't seem fair that all we do is yell at each other when poo poo like this happens.

What's happened is terrible, but at least my news isn't that bad. I can't find a good archive for Giles. But I think I'll be able to start scanning a mate's books (He's an old Irish bloke who's one helluva fan) in a few days. We still cool with that?

The difference is also that the Donkey (Pants be upon him) is an inside joke, while old Austin Powers references are the humour equivalent of a Family guy skit.

Why would a bunch of crazy jihadists attack some comic-makers of all people?? Now, if Mossad did it, it incites violence against Muslims, that furthers their goals!! Where was that graphic that stated that more than half those polled in Gaza/Saudi Arabia believed that 9/11 was committed by Zion?
