Fly on the Wall: The Best of Kevin Tobin

A curated collection of the best-of-the-best from renowned cartoonist Kevin Tobin -- Fly on the Wall captures some of the most iconic moments from Newfoundland's past and present with a recognizably sharp wit and a dose of the province's famous humour.

Fly on the Wall doesn't just collect the best of 40 years of Kevin Tobin's editorial cartoons for The Telegram ("The Evening Telegram" when he began), it tracks 40 years of Newfoundland and Labrador's history: politics, social movements, sports, celebrity, boondoggles, feel good stories, schemes, emergencies, and triumphs - all seen through the lens of keen, satirical, and no-holds-barred fly on the wall. Inside you'll find many familiar faces and events, from Joey Smallwood and Danny Williams, to Muskrat Falls and the Pandemic -- all skewered, marinated, and ready to BBQ. Tobin's cartoons capture not only current events as they happen, along with the colourful characters in Newfoundland and Labrador, they bring into image and word the true nature of our province's famous sense of humour. Readers of The Telegram will be familiar with Tobin's tiny flies, sketched into the corners of his cartoons since the early days - inspiration for this title, Fly on the Wall, and a symbol for the cartoonist himself, a fly on the wall. Watching, listening in, waiting to cut through the buzz.
