The Most Popular Cartoons from February

Here are the most popular cartoons from February. 20% of the cartoons get 80% of the reprints in newspapers, because editors tend to like the same things at the same time. Editors also tend to like the same, small pool of cartoonists, even though all of our cartoons and cartoonists are presented to editors in the same way –so these are the cartoons that got the vast majority of reprints in American newspapers last month.

Kavanaugh Grope

The Republicans seem to be tone deaf about how they sound when they dismiss women’s sexual assault claims. “Tone deaf” and how things “sound” don’t translate well into editorial cartoons, which are all about how things look, so I thought the GOP elephants groping the justice statue character made the same point visually.

The descriptions of Kavanaugh’s alleged high school and college offenses have been pretty graphic, but the bar for how graphic a cartoonist can go in editorial cartoons in America is not set very low, so I’ll be interested to see if newspapers will print cartoon elephants grabbing Justice’s boobies. I’ll know soon!

Cosby & Justice

It looks like Justice finally connected with Bill Cosby. Here’s my cartoon:

#MeToo Trump

The Statue of Liberty and the Statue of Justice seem to have been hanging out together a lot more, in editorial cartoons recently.

They are a natural couple! Here they are hanging out at the Women’s March on Washington.

My favorite Liberty and Justice cartoon is the one below, by Nate Beeler of the Columbus Dispatch. Nate drew this one when the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage.
