\nCartoon critics Phil Witte and Rex Hesner look behind the gags to debate what makes a cartoon tick. This week our intrepid critics take a look at Desert Island Clich\u00e9<\/span>.<\/em><\/p>\n

A novelist\u2019s greatest anxiety is the blank page. Cartoonists are similarly afflicted when their drawing paper remains stubbornly empty. There is a refuge for stumped cartoonists, however: the cartoon clich\u00e9.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The guru on a mountaintop, somber Easter Island heads, Noah\u2019s Ark, and the police line-up are a few of the dozens of examples of the cartoon clich\u00e9. The great advantage of a cartoon clich\u00e9 is its immediately recognizable situation: it essentially tells half the joke. All that remains is adding a killer caption and a few details to illustrate a thematic variation. But beware, the more common the clich\u00e9, the more difficult to find that unique twist.<\/span><\/p>\n

By far the hoariest clich\u00e9 of all is the Desert Island scenario. The ingredients rarely vary: a tiny island, a single palm tree, limitless ocean, and one or more castaways. Former <\/span>New Yorker<\/span><\/i> Cartoon Editor, Bob Mankoff, takes his turn, with a literary nod to John Donne.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Once the desert island environment is established, the cartoonist has many avenues to explore. Farley Katz has chosen to depict the primary goal of many a castaway\u2014escape. His twist? What if the marooned person possessed super powers? <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A second castaway adds another dimension to the desert island setup. Mick Stevens\u2019 characters can now converse with each other and make an astonishing discover, while the image plays on our expectations.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Liana Finck mixes this durable theme with another cartoon clich\u00e9: the message in a bottle. We get a sense of unexpected depth when the bottle improbably contains, yet again, a reference to a desert island cartoon. These are the plot contortions cartoonists must invent to achieve originality with such a well-worn trope.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n

Eschewing one of the most consistent desert island elements–a tiny island completely surrounded by water–Edward Steed creatively conveys isolation through visual storytelling. A crash-landed biplane leaves no question as to how these castaways arrived. The landscape contour at sunset suggests we\u2019re looking at half the island. And the water skis behind the escape boat? Madness.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n

Now that we\u2019ve established the two-castaway concept, what if they were of the opposite sex? Despite the apparent attractiveness of Carolita Johnson\u2019s marooned female, the male has an irrational whim.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stranded on an island with a single palm tree brings pangs of hunger to many readers. Coconuts might temporarily fill that void, unless of course, one has dietary restrictions. Blog co-author, Phil Witte, explores that angle with an unusually fecund palm tree.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s always Shark Week on a desert island, and their cunning knows no bounds. David Borchart introduces a second island to place a fully-stocked tiki bar just out of reach of our thirsty duo. Long beards and tattered clothes hint at the duration of their exile and abstemiousness.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

David Borchart ups the ante on the previous cartoon by not only showing an additional island, but one with two palm trees. The pamphlets floating toward the only possible readers is a brilliant graphic touch.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Our last three cartoons gleefully mix clich\u00e9s with abandon. Joe Dator couldn\u2019t resist addressing the classic radio station clich\u00e9 question: \u201cWhat 10 records would you bring to a deserted island?\u201d. The resulting cartoon gives that question a reality check.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n

Tom Toro misleads us by beginning his triptych with the venerable guru-on-a-mountain clich\u00e9. Over the next two panels, he morphs that clich\u00e9 into an inventive new hybrid, the guru-on-a-desert-island.\u201d It\u2019s a visual delight needing no caption.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n

Our final cartoon is a clever clich\u00e9 \u201cstand-off\u201d from the imperishable Leo Cullum. Looks like the \u201cevolving fish\u201d clich\u00e9 didn\u2019t stand a chance against the timeless desert island.<\/span><\/p>\n
