Dodgers return to World Series. COVID masks are out. Mister Cartoon clown masks are in

The artwork of Mister Cartoon can be seen pretty much everywhere — tattooed on celebrities, exhibited in art galleries, airbrushed on cars, painted on public walls and printed on team jerseys.

Still, the 60-year-old San Pedro native whose real name is Mark Machado didn’t expect to see his work covering the faces of some Dodgers players as they celebrated the team’s World Series berth in the clubhouse Sunday night.

“At first I thought I was seeing things, then I was like man that’s crazy,” Cartoon told The Times on Monday in an email.
