In comics and graphic humour, a cartoon, a word that comes from the French vignette, is a box delimited by lines (or scenes without a frame) that represents a moment in the story. It is considered to be the pictographic representation of the minimum significant space and/or time, and constitutes the minimum unit of a comic.
In graphic humour and comics, a succession of two or more vignettes arranged horizontally is called a "strip", while single-frame jokes or illustrations are called a "vignette".
Cartoonists' own and others' cartoons and articles on graphic humour and other texts related to the activity of cartoonists.
