Cash Kal

Kal cover

Last week, political cartoonist Kevin Kallaugher ("Kal") launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund publication of Daggers Drawn, a coffeetable book of his work for The Economist. Kal's cartoons for The Sun have been featured in previous books such as 2000's Kal Draws the Line. He hoped to raise $20,000. Well, he's already brought in $77,050 (from 1,231 backers), and the campaign still has three weeks to go! So much for Kickstarter fatigue.
