Last week the Christmas spiritinvaded the cartoon world, with Santa and his elves predictably dominating our most-popular toons this week.

Gary McCoy topped out list with his cartoon about a father asking Santa for a peaceful world, which any parent can relate to. Chris Weyant also drew a popular cartoon along similar lines.

There were some pokes and prods as well. Dave Granlund draw a funny cartoon featuring politicians running to an airplane leaving Washington, D.C., the only time you see them hurrying to do anything. And I enjoyed Randall Enos’ jab at the release of the Epstein Files, with two guys at the bar having a redacted conversation.

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

#1. Gary McCoy

#2. Jeff Koterba

Tariff time: Top ten cartoons of the week

Trump’s tariffs are back on, with dozens of key trading partners being slapped this week with so-called “reciprocal” tariffs Trump may or may not walk back.

I liked John Darkow’s cartoon, which mixed the furor of tariffs with wildfire smoke from Canada clouding our economic future. John Koterba also had a funny tariff cartoon involving a mom rushing to buy back to school supplies before prices go up.

But our most popular cartoon of the week, drawn by Chris Weyant, tackled the looming presence of AI by quoting philosopher René Descartes. I recall he also had another famous line about doubt being the origin of wisdom, something all these tech cheerleaders seem to be lacking.

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

#1. Chris Weyant

#2. John Darkow

Summer and AI: Top ten cartoons of the week

While it’s never really quiet with Trump in office, the summer does provide some relief from the relentless pace of news.

Without politics in the forefront, two topics dominated our list of the most-reprinted cartoons this week – the continued expansion of AI and the overwhelming heat.

I enjoyed John Darkow’s popular cartoon about AI, which featured classic robots from Lost in Space and The Twilight Zone. John’s funny cartoon about the scorching temperatures also topped our list, focused on a man who asked about the heat one too many times.

But our most-reprinted cartoon of the week by far, drawn by Dave Granlund, focused on the increasing cost of health care in the U.S. Can’t we get AI to fix that?

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