Editor, illustrator and journalist for Merge Magazine – Owen Lindsay, emphasises the importance of a topical, pertinent cartoon. Double degrees in Journalism and International studies from University of South Australia, Owen also worked for ‘The Wire’. This piece traces the fantastic journey of the universe’s most important creative force: life. From simple bacteria, through tentacley ocean-dwelling abominations, feathered dinosaurs, cowardly birds, and up to today’s warm-blooded space-suited human-beings, this piece celebrates life over the last 4 billion years of our planet – and asks: what’s next?
