My Favorite Ukraine Flag Cartoons

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.

The Dead Crowd

I’ve been drawing crowds of dead people lately. Like most cartoonists, I hate drawing crowd scenes. Back when I was a cartoon illustrator I drew lots of crowd scenes; art directors seem to love crowd scenes – readers do too.  Readers often send me ideas for cartoons, and the typical idea involves drawing a crowd, or opposing armies, or a “sky filled with helicopters” or something similarly painful to draw.

But, if you kill everyone in the crowd, crowds are much easier to draw. There are no expressions, or body language. When I spend too much time drawing a dead crowd, I find myself thinking about the dead crowd cartoons again and again – maybe that’s unhealthy. In January I drew this cartoon about the Marines who peed on dead Taliban fighters. 

This week I drew this one on Bashar Assad …

Now I’m plagued by thinking of “standing in the middle of a dead crowd” cartoons.  Like this one …

Now I want to draw President Obama in the middle of the dead crowd saying, “Things seem to have quietened down now, after my apology.”  Maybe I will.

I know I’m going to keep thinking about this.
