The Davis Empire employs cartoonists to do the work while Big Jim reaps the benefits. Cartoon-Boy is taking a stand for the little guys, and maybe getting rid of Rat at the same time! Sheer genius!

It’s possible that Pastis got permission from Davis before doing this arc. Maybe Davis is laughing at this just as much as we are.
