Give me your scammers; snake oil salesmen; con-artists; ponzi schemers, political crooks; executive thieves; CEO gangsters and corrupt judges; the wretched refuse that thrives on our teeming shore; send all the despicable to me; I lift my lamp and cross my fingers beside this rusted door!

Great idea for a cartoon, Mr Fish.  I think we are on the same wavelength.

My TD comments on your ‘Spare Change’ frame:

By Reubenesque, February 7 at 2:07 pm #


“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,”
... and I’ll make sure they stay that way.

... or it could just be a coincedence.

Mr. Fish,

You frightfully incorporate skulls into your work of late.  Dare we heed the warning?  Do we have a choice?

She may be crossing her fingers with her left hand, but it almost looks like she is flipping the rest of us off with her right hand finger(I know it really is the side of the torch) but the way it was drawn it doesn’t take much imagination to see it another way.
