We love the single-panel comic format because of its simplicity. The humor is condensed into one illustration, brief dialogue, and minimalist style. It’s quite a challenge to blend all these elements into one and achieve a hilarious outcome. Mat Barton is definitely one of the artists who has mastered this art. Mat is a cartoonist living in Portland, OR. His work has appeared in The New Yorker, The National Lampoon, Private Eye, New Mobility and other publications.

I buy greeting cards and send them out often. Since people aren’t doing that as much now, it has even more meaning.
