One of my most frequently used lists are characters from history, literature or fairy tales. That's because, if the characters and situations are famous enough, people already know something about them before looking at the cartoon. Remember, you only have five seconds for someone to understand your cartoon so you don't have time to fill in background details.

Franklin jump starts his car." Out in a
lightning storm Franklin flies his kite and has

Monday?"

hundred years before Newton, Columbus discovers
