Cox and Forkum Turning Out the Lights

cfbow.gif

The cartoon editorial team we have all come to admire and rely on has announced they are finished with producing editorial cartoons. Cox and Forkum provided remarkable cartoons that cut to the quick of an issue, finessing what mattered, skewering the bad guys, and highlighting what mattered in our increasingly crazy world. Opinion in a picture--it's always impressed and amazed me, and Cox and Forkum were the best.

It's obvious language is limiting, so when it comes to expressing ourselves, art and music has always been able, IMHO, to make more powerful statements. Music is able to convey emotions that we're unable to put into words. Art does the same thing--especially the work Cox and Forkum did, their ability to convey the nature of some in their portraits, or get right to the core of an issues, it's heart, with one image. They were able to show what's happening in our world, while people like me are relegated to talking and writing about it.

The team will be missed, but John Cox has his website which displays his excellent work, and the Cox and Forkum site and archives will remain up for us.

Thanks guys for great work. What a difference you've made.

I think so much of them that 3 years ago I bought 5 copies of their current book to give to friends and relatives.
I am sure GWB and Karl will be glad to see them go. C + F ridiculed lefties of both parties with GWB and Karl in many cartoons the last 2.5 years. IMHO rightfully so!

The only conservative cartoon I get in my newspaper is Mallard Fillmore. I've never seen Cox and Forkum, but recently I've been loving Get Fuzzy. It's only political sometimes, such as in this hilarious instance:

. . . For lack of a picture, a thousand words will have to do.
Actually, I say that as a way of insinuating that I won't bother saying or writing a thousand words!
