Cartoonist Gary Trudeau upsets newspaper image
Cartoonist chronicles military's Iraq odyssey (AP)

U.S. Army Master Sgt. Steve Opet, 54, of Weirton, W.Va., who pens a cartoon called 'Opet's Odyssey,' is seen in his office at Camp Victory in Baghdad, Iraq, Friday, Jan. 9, 2009. For nearly 15 months, he has chronicled the lighter side of war, in 'Opet's Odyssey' — cartoons that lampoon the sometimes humorous, sometimes inane side of military life in Iraq. 'Let's face it, I'm in the Army,' Opet, 54, of Weirton, W.Va., said recently during an interview from this sprawling base on the outskirts of Baghdad. 'And sometimes, funny stuff happens.'
