This November 'toon from Ward Sutton, who skewers conventional editorial cartooning for The Onion, hits all the notes -- the myth of cyclist privilege, the disparity between the amount of space allotted to cars vs. other modes, and the waste and helplessness that comes with sitting in traffic. The coup de grâce of Sutton's "Kelly" panels has got to be the cartoonist "self-portrait," breaking the fourth wall with a pithy bon mot. Also note the Statue of Liberty, crying as cyclists whiz by.
