A Wellington cartoonist has handed out hundreds of free comic books starring Prime Minister John Key to local cafes and retailers in the weeks leading up to this Saturday's election. Cartoonist Hayden Currie says his comics take a lighthearted look at John Key's National government. 'Sure, things are bad. But at least our Prime Minister drinks beer like a real bloke should. We could talk child poverty and rising living costs all day, but you can't deny the fact that Key has some great slogans,' Hayden said Response to the comics had been positive, Hayden said, with no death threats received yet.
