Conservative Scott Stantis has been the editorial cartoonist for the Chicago Tribune since 2009, succeeding Jeff MacNelly. He created the syndicated comic strip Prickly City (2004–present), appearing in over 400 papers. Past president of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists (2003–2004), his awards include the 1996 Sigma Delta Chi Award.

Leftist Ted Rall is an American syndicated editorial cartoonist, columnist, and graphic novelist. His multi-panel political cartoons blend comic-strip and editorial formats, and appear in over 100 U.S. newspapers via Andrews McMeel Syndication. Past president of the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists (2008–2009), his awards include two Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Awards, and Pulitzer Prize finalist.

Today’s episode inaugurates a new format, in which two working political cartoonists show their cartoons and discuss where they got their ideas and what they think about the news stories they’re discussing. DMZ is a unique forum for graphic political commentary by Rall, Stantis and their colleagues.
