John Fardell

    January 1, 1967

    John Fardell is a British cartoonist and author whose satirical humor keenly observes and critiques self-important and self-righteous individuals. Through his work, he dissects societal norms and human foibles with sharp wit. His contributions to the adult comic Viz, notably 'The Modern Parents' and 'The Critics,' are celebrated for their incisive commentary on middle-class pretentions and absurdities. Fardell's distinctive style, evident in both his adult satire and his children's narratives, offers readers a unique and often humorous perspective.
