I wonder if the billions of dollars you’d make selling prints of Daffy and Mallard Fillmore making sweet, sweet love would pay for the lawsuits you’d face from Mr. Tinsley and Warner Brothers. Only one way to find out!
I think you’d be well advised to duck that controversy. Plus, imagine the size of the bill after that lawsuit. You’d be a qauck to do it. Duck duck duck.
Every political comic strip character is a rabid conservative like Mallard, or a rabid liberal like the cast of Doonesbury. Where are the libertarian comic strip characters?
I object to classifying Richie Rich as a libertarian. He was unfailingly charitable, had genuine friendships with poor people, and in no way acted as if inheriting vaults full of greenbacks made him superior to others.
Reggie Van Dough, now, there’s a proper Rand hero for you…
Well Jim, even a famous comic creator like Steve Ditko couldn’t keep his Rand-influenced comics in the black. I guess the market has decided that we don’t need any libertarian comics after all!

Sooooooooo awesome! And makes such sense, given the tendency for the most rabid extremists to be self-loathers.
… I just feel bad for Daffy, for having sunk so low as to sleep with THAT.

This explains so much …
Rule 34.
Umm, Doonesbury has conservative characters. Really, you may not like the politics of that strip, but it is way better than Mallard Fillmore.
Doonesbury has strawman conservatives. And I don’t like the politics of Doonesbury OR Mallard Fillmore.
B.D. is a strawman conservative? He certainly used to be; he’s definitely not now.
Richie Rich was a libertarian, but the boring kind rather than the batshit insane kind.
Same with Scrooge McDuck.
Come to think of it, McDuck is still batshit insane.
So would you consider Penn & Teller the “Batshit insane” kind?

@Jim – Ayn Rand is totally a cartoon character.
