The cartoon is a graphics art, which tells a funny and/or satiric story in form of an affirmative picture, mostly with a point. Normally no words are used for the picture joke — sometimes just keywords.
The cartoon is a drawing, that often in a humoristic way comments or criticises conditions of political or social character.
The cartoon should easily perceive, which situation, person or problematic is intended to be told by the cartoonist. Also human attributes and characters can be put down in an overdoing manner.
Scouting — with all its all-round attitude towards clean, truthworthy and moral values offers quite a lot of opportunities for critics, comments and interpretations — in particular, if the way of the cartoon is put in a fair, never offending, discriminating or even insulting form.
