Eurozone debt crisis cartoon ; Sunny Star News ; A pile of defaults

Tim Burton inspired style of cartoon. Posted on the day of the Greek elections. The candle has almost melted away, its last embers blowing the sign of the euro in smoke rings. The cobwebs at the corners of the desk represent the tangled webs of debt in the eurozone. The cyber mermaid is sitting amongst a pile of default letters. The cheshire cat is bloated and inflated - like a floating balloon - representing fat cat executive bonus pay and also tax evasion. In the book, 'Alice in Wonderland' the cheshire cat disappears at will, which begs the question, where HAS all the money gone ?

The Cyber Mermaid as Pierrot, the sad clown...( and the fool ! )

The Cyber Mermaid is sad thinking about all the precious and sentimental things she sold in order to pay the interest on her bank credit cards ( before the default ). Her hair is lank and lack lustre as she is still without running hot water ( 2 cartoon blogs ago ). 
This cartoon also has in mind the people of Greece, many of whom have had to sell their family gold jewellery in order to survive in a financial crisis that is not of their doing.

Debt and Default cartoon ; Sunny Star World of News exclusive ; The Cyber Mermaid is downgraded...

The Cyber Mermaid is grinning with relief that finally the mounting interest on her bank credit cards has come to a halt due to the default. The cheshire cat is grinning insanely at the financial madness of economies being built on foundations of debt. The order of countries that are likely to default ( on the debt clock ) is conjecture.
