God I’m bald.
Thanks Aengus McMahon.
Just back from the Mayor’s Youth Conference in the Galway Bay Hotel. I was doing my conference cartoons based on the responses to the themes of the conference: mental health, transport and anti-racism. There were 300 young delegates from all over Galway and it always amazes me how articulate and confident many kids are today (at 32 I’m old enough to be of the speak-when-spoken-to generation!)
My take on the Galway water crisis. And when global warming kicks in we’ll have plenty of sand to bury our heads in.

You may very well have come across these before (I know I did somewhere) but I’ve just rediscovered the comic brilliance of Jessica Hagy on Indexed.
Sometimes there is an inverse correlation between how funny your gag is and the number of lines needed to illustrate it.
Jessica uses very few lines.
