I love the bromance cartoons with Trump and Putin. Here’s my newest one.

Here’s another batch of my syndicated TRUE cartoons about Health Statistics!
Here’s batch of my TRUE! cartoons, on the subject of Health Statistics!
The big summit in Helsinki is tomorrow, where President Trump will kiss Vladimir Putin’s butt, even though we now know the details of the Russian cyber-campaign to boost Trump and bash Hillary in the 2016 election.
Yes, Trump is off target. He needs to move a little to the left. Just to show that I’m an equal opportunity cartoon butt kisser, here is a butt-bonus oldie – President Obama kissing the butt of the king of Saudi Arabia.
This batch of my syndicated TRUE! newspaper cartoons is on the topic of women’s self images.
This batch of my syndicated TRUE! cartoons is about historical figures!
Here’s a batch of cartoons about marriage from my 1995 syndicate comic strip, TRUE!
These are all depicting real, honest-to-goodness facts. I have a lot of these and I’m entering the evergreens into our huge cartoon database at PoliticalCartoons.com. More to come.
These are some of my old TRUE! cartoons from 1995. I used to draw this as a syndicated daily panel for Tribune Media Services syndicate, which is now Tribune Content Agency because they named another company “Tribune Media Services.” I used to pour over stats in news reports and draw them into cartoons. These are really true, except the art, and the selection of the facts amounts to commentary.
I drew TRUE! for about a year, so I have hundreds of these cartoons and as I was going back through the archives, I thought I would start adding some that still look fresh to our PoliticalCartoons.com database. This first batch for the database is on the theme of business.
I should add that back in 1995, Tribune Media Services didn’t allow the artists they syndicate to have their own web sites. Those were early days for the internet and most cartoonists hadn’t created their own sites yet. I started Cagle.com in 1996, as soon as I wriggled out from under Tribune Media Services and their “no web sites” policy.
In the crush of cartoons criticizing President Trump for his trade war with China, I haven’t noticed any that are supportive of Trump’s tariffs. Trump’s promises about tariffs and renegotiating more favorable trade agreements around the world were a driving force in his election. Frankly, I don’t mind the tariffs and the approach. I consider this to be a mildly pro-Trump cartoon.
China had all they wanted in their trade relationship with the USA; Trump’s tariffs give China new and different things they want from America, that Trump should be willing to give up. That’s a negotiating tactic I see all the time as an artist working with businesses, but it seems to be lost on the pundits.
And I love drawing Xi Jinping as Winnie the Pooh – I’m going to stick with that. Here’s an earlier one.
Here’s a magazine cover from 1988 that shows younger me and my daughter, Susie Cagle. There are some things I’ve posted here on this cover, the Keds snow boot in the lower right; the Enesco Piggy Cleopatra mug in my hand; the Hasbro Classic Kermit plush box in the lower left, and the animal library poster, which was brand new at the time, behind my head. I was so young!
Here’s a catalogue cover for the toy/gift company “Hog Wild” that I did a lot of art for, back in the day. They had a little, black, wire/magnet character that was pretty cute.
Here’s a better pic of that Milton Bradley box cover.
This is the cross-sell on the back of a blister card.
I used to do a weekly sports comic strip that ran in USA Today for a time. These were ads for Sega Sports. Sorry they are so wide – so they may be hard to read. Open these images in a new window to see bigger, more readable versions.
Here’s more of those skeleton soldiers. I think these are for cards.
This magazine cover is from way back in 1984.
This old magazine cover for Scholastic is from 1980.
This Scholastic magazine cover oldie is from 1979, soon after I moved to Manhattan to be an illustrator, right out of college.
This one was somehow for Pepsi’s ad agency, but I don’t remember how it was used.
Here’s the line art for my Muppet Babies Mattel See ‘n Say.
Here’s the line art for the Zoo Keeper Mattel See ‘n Say. I have the product in my garage somewhere.
Some 20+ years ago I drew a weekly, quasi-autobiographical comic strip called, “TVtoon!!” for the 
British national TV Guide/Entertainment magazine “TV Times” and a national TV guide magazine in Australia.
I changed our names, but it is clearly our family and my kids, Susie and Michael were 7 and 13 years old in the strip. Things have changed a lot in 20+ years – those were simpler times! Open each image in a new window for a bigger version.
