When I looked at Cliffhanger I saw that her feet looked like they might be lifting something up. My cartoon “Catholic Cliffhanger: The Stigmatization of Pope Francis” speaks to his agenda of inclusion through Poor Clare's Shoe Donation Box.

Notes: The Holy See's hand is stigmatized with a heart. The famously unworn red Papal shoes are seen in the small donation box. The unique order of Nun's who followed St. Francis were often called Poor Clares. The thoughts and words of the cartoon characters are taken from national news with the exception of the traditional Nun's gently cloaked retort.
