After a several-decade hiatus from cartooning and 13 years away from Louisville, Michael Ray returns to cartooning. Previously, he was published in the esteemed local alt-press, including CityPaper, MainStreet, Louisville Artist Magazine, and spent a handful of years at the University of Louisville Cardinal (starting in the mid-seventies “shudder”). He is unapologetically still a liberal hippie. His work will appear as the muse strikes him.
“The Reopen Government bill has a buried passage that will totally shut down the large and expanding Hemp THC derivative business everywhere –especially in Kentucky,” Ray said. This week’s cartoon is a take on Mitch McConnell’s tantrum about hemp.
