Whamond and Koterba on the Top Ten Cartoons

We have a big Caglecast video podcast this week with guest cartoonists Jeff Koterba and Dave Whamond discussing the Top Ten most reprinted cartoons of the week along with their own top ten most reprinted editorial cartoons of their careers with CagleCartoons.  Its a must-see – click the video below.

Jeff has drawn for over thirty years for the top newspaper in Nebraska, his cartoons have flown around the world on the Space Shuttle Discovery, he’s consistently appearing among most popular cartoons, he hosts a show about classical music on radio station KVNO, he plays in a popular Swing band, the Prairie Cats, and he’s been struck by lightening.

Dave Whamond is incredibly prolific! He draw two comics, “Reality Check” and “Day by Dave.” He regularly shares the top editorial cartoon spots in the Top Ten with Jeff Koterba, he is a prolific illustrator who does puzzles, greeting cards and lots of top selling children’s books.

The list below is a bit different that the Top Ten in the video, because I grabbed the cartoons at a different hour than our editor Rob Tornoe, who does the columns for us –the most popular cartoons change every monute as editors download more.

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

#1. Dave Whamond

#2. Jeff Koterba

 

#3. Dave Whamond

 

#4. Dave Granlund

 

#5. Guy Parsons

 

#6. Dave Granlund

 

#7. Pat Byrnes

 

#8. R.J. Matson

Top Ten Cartoons of the Week – February 13, 2021

Here are our most reprinted cartoons of the week ending February 13th.

Jeff Koterba kicked butt this week winning both the #1 and #2 cartoons!  John Darkow also had a great week with the cartoons on the Top Ten. Kudos to the other cartoonists with the most reprinted cartoons this week: Kevin Siers, Rick McKee, Dave Granlund, Dave Whamond, Randy Enos, and Dick Wright.

The Top Ten cartoons are what most readers see since only 20% of the cartoons get 80% of the reprints. Our Top Ten is a measure of how many editors choose to reprint each of our cartoons, from the 62 cartoonists in our CagleCartoons.com syndication package. Just about half of America’s daily, paid circulation newspapers (around 700 papers) subscribe to CagleCartoons.com. 

Our reader supported site, Cagle.com, still needs you!  Journalism is threatened with the pandemic that has shuttered newspaper advertisers. Some pundits predict that a large percentage of newspapers won’t survive the pandemic economic slump, and as newspapers sink, editorial cartoonists who depend on newspapers sink too, and along with them, our Cagle.com site.

The world needs political cartoonists more now than ever. Please consider supporting Cagle.com and visit Cagle.com/heroes.

TRUE COLOR!

This will be my last batch of TRUE cartoons for my blog. I watercolored these for some reason that I forget! Back in the 1990’s, when this ran in newspapers, it ran in black and white and there was no color, Sunday TRUE. Gotta love color!

Trump Valentines Candy UNCENSORED

Here’s my Trump Valentines Day Candy. I drew a tame version and asked my followers on Twitter (@dcagle) what they through – they wanted a less tame version. Somehow, I think newspapers will print the tame version.

The spicy version:

The tame version:

 

Knowing that newspapers have both versions to choose from, here’s an opportunity to see if your local editor is tame or spicy.

The Girls Love Bernie More than Hillary!

This one is my valentine to Bernie Sanders, who is shaking up the Hillary Clinton campaign by attracting young, women voters who Hillary thinks should be her natural supporters. Valentines Day is on Sunday, and every day seems to be Bernie Sanders Day now.
