As a cartoonist, it is an honor to have someone cut out your cartoon from the newspaper and stick it on their fridge. But having a dinosaur named after you has to be a close second.
Apparently, a new series of pterosaur has been named after Gerald Scarfe, the famous British political cartoonist who lampooned Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher as a pointy nosed “torydactyl.”
The new pterosaur species, found by fossil collector Steve Etches and identified by University of Portsmouth palaeontologist Dr David Martill., has been named Cuspicephalus scarfi, because the fossil’s unusually pointy head reminded Dr. Martill of Scarfe’s cartoon.
“Although the new pterosaur discovery has a strong resemblance to his caricature of Margaret Thatcher, pterosaurs were never as divisive as Thatcher!” Martill said.
“I’m thrilled and flattered,” Scarfe said, responding to the news. “I never thought Mrs Thatcher would do anything for me – even if it is to be immortalised as a 155-million-year-old fossil.”
From the start, I suspected the so-called “Super Committee” (view all our Super committee cartoons) was doomed to failure. After all, when has Congress proved it can come together and get anything done over the past couple of years?
Here’s my latest cartoon about the realization of their unsurprising failure:
The only group happy about this debacle are the turkeys roaming around Washington. They’ll be safe this Thanksgiving:
In all honestly, Superman should be ashamed that these Congressional buffoons have co-opted even a part of his name:

Newt Gingrich is the latest Republican to become the anti-Romney candidate and surge to lead the GOP presidential field. But Gingrich has lots of baggage – LOTS of baggage – so we’ll see if he can withstand the glare of the spotlight better than his peers have.
What do our cartoonists think of Newt’s rise in the polls? Check out our Gingrich Soars cartoon collection to find out.
I just found out that my friend Bil Keane, the legendary cartoonist and creator of “The Family Circus,” died yesterday of congestive heart failure at the age of 89.
Bil started his career as a messenger fro the Philadelphia Bulletin before serving in the Army, drawing for Yank and Pacific Stars and Stripes. It’s hard to believe that Bil starting drawing the adventures of Billy, Jeffy, Dolly and P.J. all the way back in 1960. After nearly a half century of continuous publishing, Family Circus is in over 1,500 newspapers across the country.
Bil was also the president of the National Cartoonists Society from 1981 to 1983 and was the emcee of the Society’s annual awards banquet for 16 years. He was also named the Society’s Cartoonist of the Year and received the Reuben Award in 1982.
Bil’s talented son Jeff, who has been working on Family Circus for many years, will continue the legendary panel.
