Muppet cartoon by Lowercasegods

[lowercasegods]

Okay, this isn't going to be easy. I want to warn anyone who is content with Brian Henson's decision making in the past two years to please avoid this cartoon. I'm not out to offend anyone's sensibilities.

I drew this cartoon for my college paper back when Brian first sold the Muppets to Disney, and I've avoided posted it here for various reasons. But with his most recent interview, I've gotten the feeling that he's really lost all compassion and care for the Muppets. And given the lackluster way Disney's been handling the Muppets, it seems my cartoon's vision is pretty close to the truth. So for those who are less than pleased about Brian's handling of the whole situation, here's my cartoon. And I stress again, for those people who enjoy my work yet are happy with how things are going with the Muppets, for your own good, please don't view this link.

Uff da! Talk about biting commentary.
I like how you put the names on the arms...I know that's typical for political style cartoons, but it reminds me of the work of Thomas Nast.

Wow! I consider such a comparison a real compliment! Nast is practically the father of American editorial cartooning. Thank you!

*nods* I don't want to start a flame war with my opinion of the Disney buyout or of Brian Henson's attitude; I remember the last time my posts turned people's temper ugly on this forum. Still, your cartoon expresses some Muppet fans' cynicism exceptionally well.

Inspired by both Muppet Monkey and Vic Romano, I'm submitting here for your approval my own Muppet cartoon. Hope you guys like it.
