Oh great so now it’ll become nothing but crazy stories of man eating snakes and general idiocy instead of the great work NG did over decades using real academics and scientists.
i had not heard this, and it has genuinely ruined my day.
Same here. I’ve been a subscriber for years. Not renewing if this is true.
Wot coz its bin like all Pg 3 stunners since he’s taken over the Times and the “Sun”day Times?
Well they’ve certainly been short on stories about subjects that go against his interests.
My sides…… DOB is the saviour of the planet., thanks to telecommunications and you know thinking outside the envelope. Primitive people now have cell phones just like the Irish.
It’s “stunnas” actually
Rupert Murdoch is a climate change denier. He has now doomed the world.
This isn’t good news.
That “octopus” has nine legs, Conor, please try harder. Or less harder maybe.
Who said it was an Octopus? It’s a tentacled, parasitic invertebrate from Australia called a Murdok!
+1 Conor. Put a cap on it, Domestos.
Oh yeah – he’s only owned it for five minutes and octopuses have started to seriously mutate.
Chill mon, he knows I’m messing.
+1 Domestos.
Either that octopus has ten tentacles or I’ve developed a stutter.
…would you ever f f ff off
It’s just banter, and you can’t ban banter.
…unless you use tacky tactics.
if you are worried about anatomical accuracy, Murdoch is not an octopus.
Great drawing, Conor.
An anatomical anomaly is an anomaly.
-Although there’s no point pointing this out to you useless non-pedantic thickos, I’d rather if you could maybe be a bit more scientific if it could be possible in this discourse.
And yeah, great drawing Conor.
Don’t mind me and me messing.
They were all very sensitive last night, bad at memes.
you can’t ban her cant ban her banner can’t you
No you’re right! Pretty soon the Oirish Independent will be the only serious news around.
The octopus is usually used to portray ” the Jew “.
Depressing beyond words.
No mention of his takeover of Storyful tho’, huh?
Maybe because that was ages ago. And I’m pretty sure it was well covered at the time.

That Ryan lad is handy with the colouring pencils
Int’ he
Credit where credit it due like
Well, that escalated quickly! Haha, cheers for the compliments, folks.
Ps, He doesn’t have any legs, just an indeterminate amount of tentacles! (There are a few more around the back that I didn’t need to draw…
Keep ’em coming, maybe they’ll allow you an informal, irregular slot like Mick Flavin or Annie West.
I might just do that!
Conor, I think it’s an excellent cartoon, well done. You could have had a map of NW France with the City of Brest in a red circle as your National Geographic version of page 3 :) Maybe you should consider [if you’re not already doing so] using a motif/ symbol in your cartoons so people can recognise your work, or maybe as a sort of subliminal message. Keep up the good work, you’re very talented.
Thanks, Zarathustra, much appreciated. There might be another one today at some stage -if they like it!
I’ll think about a signature too. Cheers.
