Multiple Australian newspapers publish “Best of cartoons” galleries, featuring editorial cartoons and illustrations based on the day’s news.

The Brisbane Times (Articles 1, 4, 7), The Age in Melbourne (Articles 2, 5, 8), and the Sydney Morning Herald (Articles 3, 6, 9) all present the same kind of content: a curated selection of cartoons from artists working for their publications. The items are dated across three consecutive days—October 19, October 20, and October 21, 2026—suggesting routine daily posting rather than a single breaking event.

From the information provided, the listings do not specify the subjects or themes of the cartoons. Each outlet’s page is framed as a showcase of its “talented artists, illustrators and cartoonists,” with no additional context about specific events, figures, or policy matters covered in the artwork.
