The Net Effect or If This Is the Bottom Line, What Are You Guys Doing Down There? Editorial Cartoons, Drawings, Etc. by Wells

Wells’s long-running editorial cartoon series, launched in 1979 through Morris Communications, offers a sharp, single-panel look at political and social absurdity. Known for its biting wit and distinctive drawing style, the strip’s debut issue—with its characteristically unwieldy title—established a voice that would remain relevant for decades. A consistent presence in newspapers, it matters as a sustained example of regional editorial cartooning with national resonance.
