Conflict Inc. – A New Cartoon

I think this industry is hiring.

It’s Wednesday, and I’ve got another brand new cartoon for you. This one was finished late last night, and, like so many of my cartoons, the ink was still a bit wet when I tossed it on the scanner. (Image after jump.) The inspiration for this one comes from the unintended consequences of our actions as a large, yet relatively mindless mass of people. To be more specific, the bailout of the banking system and the myriad opportunities for profit that this has spawned came to mind, Enjoy.
