The cartoonist David Simpson, formerly of the alternative publication Urban Tulsa Weekly, has admitted to copying the works of another cartoonist (read more here), but he hasn’t indicated just how much he has plagiarized.

Below are most of Simpson’s cartoons that he published with Urban Tulsa Weekly in the past year. Please help us determine which ones may be plagiarized by identifying the original source in the comments. In a follow-up report, we’ll do our best to give you a better understanding of the extent of Simpson’s plagiarism.

A good place to start your comparison is the Jeff MacNelly editorial cartoon archive.
