Clay Bennett’s deceptively simple cartoons, often without captions, drive home strong, perceptive messages on topics ranging from global warming, immigration, North Korea’s nuclear program and Vladimir Putin, to Donald Trump’s handling of complex foreign policy issues. Clever ideas and an engaging style make for a memorable portfolio.
