Cartoons of Interest

A cartoon set in a parakeet prison. I wonder what he did to end up in that cell.

Busking flamingos. They lack important body parts. You should cut them some slack.

How artists perceive the world. This one has a slightly pessimistic outlook.

Another cartoon cliché mash-up: personified Death meets the dark alley clubber.

I've never really been a fan of Joe Cocker. This, however, is one cool collage.

A sequence of pictures dedicated to everyday loops. By the way.. Did I turn off the stove?

A caricature of singer/ guitar player Josh Homme. Great composition.

Puny craft scissors VS the intimidating power of the red velvet rope: Who ya got?

A series of tentacle-themed cartoons from Cuba mysteriously titled "wind".

Personal Favorite

I usually don't pick editorial cartoons as 'personal favorites' - A day after publishing them the situation might have changed considerably. This is of course true for the recent situation in Egypt. Still, I like this one by German artist Erl for its simple style and clear yet inventive metaphor.
