That first panel is incredible. I'm pretty sure that legs don't work like that.

Can political cartoonists lazily rip off Pokemon or Adventure Time next, something modern to make a change from lazily ripping off classical pieces.

Maybe have Angela Merkel as Goku throwing an energy ball with DEBT written on it, I don't know.

Oh, sure. But this is the point he was making:

Unfortunately a lot of people hate foreign aid simply because they think it means that foreigns roll around all day in their taxes, and so would be against any form of reform at all.

which is a whole other kettle of fish to a potentially okay system being corrupt. Mac is just a oval office.

Though it's hack as gently caress nobody thinks they're being clever by mimicking Goya, the guy's not obscure.
Political cartoonists are basically the same as teenagers doing mashups of Steven Universe and Pokémon, but with classical art.

I like that Adams had to obscure all the options because he doesn't actually know anything about gender identity and couldn't be bothered to let a little fact-finding get in the way of an easy idea he could knock out before lunch.

Didn't fancy drawing the rest of the room then, just Photoshop that one panel and call it a day.

"What's topical at the moment?"

"China!"

"Yes, but what about it?"

"China!"

"Right, but what point are you trying to make?"

"China!"



Although to be fair, you can replace China with any word and that would cover you for a vast array of cartoons by a vast array of cartoonists.

I've managed to ignore anything and everything said by Trump these past few months, so pretty much, yes.

Aw, I like Rowson. :( I don't really see anything he draws as being contentious, he just kind of has this wacky apocalyptic hellscape he likes to shove political figures into.

Also because the remoaners are preventing our glorious fuhrer from freeing us from the tyranny of the EU, or something.

Whatever. gently caress off Bob.

Paul Thomas was a godawful political cartoonist, but he's found his muse and by god I'm going to do my part to let the world know about it.

Is Adams? I'm not sure if I'd prefer that he's just trolling us or is literally this delusional.

Mac, on the other hand, is just an old school newspaper cartoonist; he's found his rut and he'll happily stay there until rigor mortis prevents his withered corpse from drawing more golliwogs.
