Smoke from Canadian wildfires one again drifted across the border this week, impacting air quality from Chicago to Philadelphia. John Darkow’s cartoon summing up all the weather-related dread Americans have faced this summer was our most popular cartoon among editors.

Darkow also drew the second-most reprinted cartoon, which commented on the terrible math scores among kids following COVID lockdowns.

Here are our top ten most reprinted cartoons of the week:

My Favorite Ukraine Flag Cartoons

Post author By Daryl Cagle
Post date April 25, 2022

Here are my favorite Ukraine Flag cartoons, starting with three of my own. The first is my memorial cartoon for Ukraine’s civilian deaths.

This one is on America’s support for Ukraine …

This is my first Ukraine flag cartoon, drawn 28 years ago in 1984 for the Muppets and Hasbro/Playskool. I claim this as the first Ukraine flag cartoon! (Considering that Ukraine was founded as an independent nation in 1991, 21 years ago.)

Here are more favorites by the CagleCartoonists …

This Picasso inspired cartoon is by Emad Hajjaj, from Jordan.

This Van Gogh inspired cartoon is by Emad’s brother, Osama Hajjaj, from Jordan.

This one is by Ed Wexler, from Los Angeles.

This one is by Kap, from Barcelona, Spain.

This one is by Hajo, from the Netherlands.

… and this one is by Jeff Koterba, from Nebraska.

Our weekly Top Ten is now a newspaper column! Subscribing editors can find it at CagleCartoons.com with download links to grab the cartoons in high resolution.

TRUE Crazy Stuff 2!

Post date August 3, 2018

Here’s another batch of my TRUE syndicated newspaper cartoons from 1995. I’m culling out the cartoons that are not too stale to include in our PoliticalCartoons.com database and making little changes so that don’t seem too dated; sometimes that is hard and I have to delete some of my favorite oldies. I’m letting quite a few old style TVs and land line phones sneak through.

I suppose it is more interesting that so little has changed.

Here is Trump and the world.

Yes, that is a map of the world on the globe’s head. I always wonder if things like that are clear enough. On the black and white version I put a label on the “World”.
