A good metaphor can go a long way, but there are certain cartoonists – too many to name, really – that constantly rely on slapping labels like “Debt” and “Economy” on old tropes like sinking ships, cars going over cliffs, and flood waters. This comic is a continuation of criticism I began in last year’s Hack Attack, based on cartoonists he draw the same “it’s cold so global warming isn’t real” cartoon every Winter.

This character will probably be back. Until then, if you are interested in editorial cartoon criticism, I recommend two Tumblrs: A Good Cartoon and Shittiest Editorial Cartoon Of The Moment.
