Cartoonists are the original Fourth Estate, which today we attribute to the press. Cartoonists were the original king’s fool who were allowed to criticize power. Some Muslim fundamentalists have a problem with the role of cartoonists in society. The Charlie Hebdo massacre and the other related murders in Paris attack our democracy and freedom of speech. Enough king’s fools have suffered in history for openly criticizing power. ComicBookBin offers its deep condolences to the families, the friends of the victims and the French people.
