Comic Riffs is a blog devoted to the comics fan. Come in, sit down and put your feet up as we celebrate, contemplate, eviscerate and pontificate on cartoons.
You've got race. You've got politics. You've got police. And now, you've even got Bud Light.
For editorial cartoonists, it's a welcome perfect storm that requires more than deft punch lines. To comment properly, the story demands the cartoonist pick a side and pack a true opinion.
In terms of execution of their idea -- no matter their opinion -- here are three of the better political cartoons this Riffster has seen this week about the arrest of Professor Henry Louis Gates and the subsequent fallout that reaches clear to the White House. Call it Gates-gate.
Here's the trio of top 'toons -- you're invited to vote for your fave. (And if you've got another you like, feel free to share them links.)
