About this title

Review:

'As an artist he's been compared to Hogarth... every bit as brilliant and inventive.' Guardian 'The quintessential artist-cartoonist' Observer 'One of the world's greatest satirical artists' --Daily Telegraph

'Britain's foremost illustrator' --Independent

'To call him a 'cartoonist' somehow doesn't do justice to one of our great satirists, artists and chroniclers of the best and very worst of life' --Creative Review
