Nathan: Know Him Before You Judge Him

"Originally this is a satire/parody of the mental health adverts that plague New Zealand television. Some critics have argued that the irony that The Baron is highlighting here is that perhaps Nathan's necrophilia is indeed a mental illness, despite the somewhat conflicting interpretations, the strip is considered a classic Da Life masterpiece.

Nando's

"Here we see another example of the character of 'Nathan' becoming the victim of the joke. When one peruses the history of Da life, the victimisation of Nathan becomes a thematic fixture throughout the plots. This cartoon is also an example of The Baron's attempt to include corporate sponsorship within his plots (here Nando's). The motivation behind this were rumoured to be a spate of bad gambling debts incurred at the Riwaka steeplechase of '89."
