I have been trying to draw this cartoon for over a week. There have been a lot of cartoons this October with the theme of scary news with each featuring TVs. I didn't like any of them. But I thought of this one last week and it tickled me. I thought it was a better... Continue Reading →

But is it though? In 2017... Continue Reading →
I drew on this issue for the CNN Opinion newsletter but I also wanted to do one for my clients. And I think I drew a mean one here. Proofreader Laura told me this is so grim that it's not really a cartoon. She tells me stuff like that from time to time. One of... Continue Reading →
