 Title: California FIREpublic
Published: Ventura County Star
Date: July 2, 2002
About this cartoon: California was going through a period of particularly high fire danger.
Noteworthy: Most cartoons are just free association. I thought about fire danger and fire safety, which led to thinking of Smokey Bear, which led to my noticing that California is also represented by a bear on the California Republic flag, and it was just a matter of combining these elements.
