Hog's Breath Boomer
A two-panel cartoon drawn off the show, both panels set in the same bar. In the first the drinkers run through why they are hated — the freedoms, the bombings, the embargoes, the financing — with a television carrying the news above them. In the second the same bar, the same television, and the conclusion that it is mostly the freedoms.
Two stacked panels with identical framing so only the dialogue and the screen change, which is how the repetition does the work. The bar runs across both as a continuous horizontal.
Black ink on white. No colour.
Close vertical ruling behind the bottles in both panels, against open line in the drinkers, with the television screens drawn as small bordered inserts. Nothing is filled solid.
Ink on paper, drawn as a cartoon for the show.
Lettered ROTC TOONS at the lower centre with the artist's name and a date in MMDDYY beside it.
