Militant minded cartoonist

A little about me, I'm near Saskatoon and anti-social.

I'm currently publishing Peanuts style comic strips in a "based" publication, but the comic strip I pitched them was never meant to be topical except in broad strokes. I've since catered to their request that my strips be more timely, but at the end of the day the strip I pitched them was more about cutesy jokes with an edge as opposed to disembowelling social commentary. The magazine is also very much speaking to the choir. I've since discovered I've got a Mr.Hyde creative side that needs an outlet. I'm not an essayist, I have no manifesto in me bursting to come out, but I want to make leftists seethe with my most developed ability, cartooning.

If this topic speaks to you at all please throw in your two cents, and if the topic is screaming at you, please shoot me a DM.

I've often thought that it would a good idea for FCW-type people to have their own online publication, covering not only politics but arts and culture and other social trends, in order to reach a wider audience and provide a counterpoint to the all-pervasive left-wing propaganda in Canada. A regular cartoon would fit well into that. I'm not tech-savvy enough to embark on such a venture, but if anyone else is I'd happily contribute my old-man ramblings to it
 
I've long been attracted to the idea of some form of modern pamphleteering campaign. like a combination of old-zine and e-zine. qr codes or something. not quite sure.
 
A far right version of those 70s comix is an attractive proposal. Those were so over the top in their early progressive leftism you could swear they were satire created by the right. a new incarnation of something like that, slightly more exaggerated could even come across as ambiguous.
