Another misunderstanding

I kinda liked this one and thought it might have a chance. The New Yorker disagreed. How shellfish of them.

New Yorker Rejection

10-22-15 - berther202

This is my first official rejection from The New Yorker. I submitted this cartoon way back in October of last year. So it appears their review time can take up to four months–wow!

I’ve submitted a couple others already and I’m trying to complete a batch of ten to send off at the same time. I think I’m better understanding the style and sense of humor they are looking for. We’ll see.

Anyway, this cartoon idea is a bit out of date…since we have pretty much moved into a new political season. But I still like it.
