Cape Times 12 November 1999, Tracy Murinik:
" … the ultimate intelligent relief as carefully documented records and critiques of South Africa’s unfolding daily narratives. Zapiro’s incisive instincts and insights into situations and his astonishing skill to select and identify key moments to make his point are pretty incomparable in the South African cartoon spheres. He zaps with the astute clarity of an infra–red beam and with the acute wit and occasionally cynical irony of say, Eeyore on coffee. His stance is a mixture of irreverence and accountability, and principled social conscience that when ruffled, tenaciously wields its weaponry until it’s ready to let go."
