“My career as a magazine cartoonist began in 1966, at the age of eight when I swiped a copy of the book Thurber & Company from my brother,” says Michael Shaw. “I am now a copywriter for Lands’ End, which is a fine and noble profession. Unfortunately the doodle bug has never left me. Sometime in early 1998 I decided that before the end of this century, I would sell a cartoon to The New Yorker or implode in the attempt.” (more here)

“Whenever I’ve done satires of the famous “ascent of man” illustration in the past, I’ve gotten comments or emails from creationists. I’m guessing this one won’t elicit the same response, but one never knows. This cartoon isn’t about religion or science, of course, it’s just a humorous take on a famous graphic.”
