Hugh MacLeod’s got a great cartoon-based blog going at Gaping Void.

He explains his cartooning habit by going back to his time working in Manhattan where he got into the habit of ‘doodling on the back of business cards, just to give me something to do while sitting at the bar’. He’s now living back in the UK, living in Cambria, just south of the Scottish.

Besides publishing his cartoons, Hugh helps run a bespoke Savile Row tailoring firm, English Cut with Thomas Mahon. He also works as a “blogvertising” consultant, helping clients use blogs to spread commercial ideas.
