Jack Ohman"s cartoons are easy to love: his art is immensely accessible, his wit is always sharp, and his academic background in political science shows through in almost every cartoon. Like the best of the best, Ohman can take an easily lampoonable situation and find just the angle that makes it seem totally fresh. For example, contrasting the media circus surrounding camp O. J. Simpson with an empty street labeled "Media at Camp Battered Women." Or consider the reaction from the National Cutlery Association to the Lorena Bobbitt verdict: "Knives don"t wound husbands.... Wives do!!!" Ohman"s cartoons never seem tired, and the diversity of topics he chooses to satirize is wonderfully broad: debts and taxes, congressional oversights, "popped culture," environmentalism, gender politics--there"s even a chapter on "The Politics of Meaninglessness." If you are not already a huge fan of Jack Ohman, his name will rise to the top of your list after reading Do I Have to Draw You a Picture?
