War is Hell
Brett Lethbridge
In a first for Behind the Lines, students studying comedy and satire at Flinders University were asked for their opinions on various cartoons in the exhibition. One student focused on this cartoon by Brett Lethbridge: ‘Irony – war is far from hell for all those who are profiteering from it and using it as an excuse to unnecessarily increase their prices.’
