Not that you asked, but I like the cartoon even better with only the caption "The Cat Whisperer." I didn't see the smaller text underneath until after I'd laughed. On my stuff I'm trying to figure out where captions look better: above or below the drawing? On this one I think the caption above is perfect. The title has a certain connotation... and then I see that cat covering the man's face—Hee hee!
I've always thought that the caption should go anywhere the "reveal" of it makes the cartoon funnier. Sometimes the top is better, sometimes the bottom.
I'm a forty-something year old married guy who is referred to as "The Geek" by my wife. That may give you the quick version. If you want more info read on. I grew up in the 60’s-70's as a huge fan of the Big Bad Bruins, Godzilla, Rock Music, Comics, all things scary, drawing and reading. Hmm...doesn't sound like a geek to me... I work for a financial institution as a Web QA tester. I am happily married and have been for over 10 years. I enjoy cartooning and drawing in pen and ink and occasionally will add some watercolor. I have been playing the guitar for years and just recently taught myself the ukulele. I love classic Sci-Fi and Monster movies. Preferably in Black and White. I am not a fan of the new slasher gross-out movies. They come too close to reality. Now the Creature from the Black Lagoon....that’s a movie.

Bill, any general guideline for how a newbie like myself could judge a reveal?
