	May 29 North Korea's Kim Jong Il and his brazen testing of nuclear weapons is the main topic this week for global cartoonists. They portray him as everything from a bellicose would-be cowboy, a mouse walking a giant Chinese panda, and a wannabe member of the nuclear club.
	May 22 If global cartoonists have favored the image of pigs in recent weeks, they've now moved on to tigers, graciously provided by the Tamil insurgency group that was defeated this week by Sri Lankan forces. But wait, doves also make an appearance, along with shackles, baseball bats and luggage made in China.
	May 15 Political cartoonists are moved by what Pope Benedict said and didn't say on his trip to the Middle East this week. They also take on prison -- who's entering and who's leaving -- and President Obama's preferred brand of mustard.
	May 8 Pigs and face masks continue to inspire political cartoonists around the globe this week. Some of the panicis gone but none of the humor.
	May 1 These week there's only one word to describe what's on the mind of global cartoonists: pigs. See them see them worry, wear protective masks, get innoculated, jump off roofs, complain about flu symptoms, ignore the press, storm the Alamo, and finally, grace the waist of a suicide bomber.
	April 6 Global cartoonists have fun with President Barack Obama at the G20 meeting, his first international debut. We also see him confronting the ailing US auto industry, welcoming France back into the NATO fold, and trying to find a new way forward in Afghanistan.
	March 30 President Barack Obama is once again the star of this week's cartoons. We see him trying to juggle everything from dealing with a nuclear North Korea, the ambivalent reaction to his overture to Iran, the economy still in free-fall, and the threat of drug violence spilling over from the Mexican border.
	March 16 Many cartoonists this week were moved to respond to Pope Benedict's controversial comments about condoms. The AIG bonus scandal also makes an appearance along with a favorite subject: President Barack Obama.
	March 9 President Obama's treatment of overseas friends and outreach to traditional foes dominate this week's cartoons along with appearances by Bernie Madoff, Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe, Sudan's Omar al-Bashir and the Dalai Lama.
	March 2 This week's cartoons speak to the breadth of the crises President Obama is trying to solve: from reinventing a new relationship with Russia to rescuing health care. And the dark cloud hanging over all these efforts: the foundering global economy.
	February 23 There is a bit more hope and optimism in this week's cartoons. Obama wins two Oscars, chimps complain about their treatment in cartoons, and Abu Ghraib Prison is under new management.
	February 16 Once again President Obama dominates this week's political cartoons. The images poke fun at his stimulus package and imagine what it's like for a guy from Hawaii to visit frigid Canada. Other topics include Hillary Clinton's visit to Asia, the global drug trade, the newly legitimate Taliban, the disgraced Khmer Rouge, and colliding submarines.
	February 9 As the economic crisis becomes more grave, so do the messages in this week's political cartoons. The cartoonists' take on everything from the economic stimulus plan to the fires in Australia to Alex Rodriguez is decidedly darker this week.
	February 2 This week the most popular theme for political cartoonists around the globe is still the new Obama administration and its attempts to fix the ailing economy.
	January 26 Our second installment of cartoonists from around the world taking a stab at the new Obama administration.
	January 21 Cartoonists from around the world take a look at the predicaments of the new American President.
