Text top left reads 'A tale of two quakes' In the first frame a man runs from 'radiation leaks' yelling 'The end of the world!' and in the second frame a man runs from the notion 'No World Cup?' yelling 'The end of the world!' Context - the terrible earthquake and tsunami in Japan 11 March 2011 that have led to the overheating of several nuclear power plants that are leaking radiation and threaten a nuclear catastrophe and the Christchurch earthquakes of 4 September 2010 and 22 February 2011 that have led to the decision that because of the amount of damage to the venue plus infrastructures and accommodation for visitors the Rugby World Cup will not be played in Christchurch.

A woman chats over her garden wall to a passerby who is curious about a huge container-like structure labeled 'emergency kit' that has been built beside the house. She says that in the event of a natural disaster Harold wants to ensure that they will have enough provisions to see them through the Rugby World Cup. Refers to the Christchurch earthquake that occurred 4th September 2010.

A woman sits reading a newspaper with reports about the Japanese earthquake and the latest news on Christchurch post-earthquake. Her husband has just put a Jerry Lee Lewis record on the turntable and the song 'Whole lotta shakin' goin' on' is playing; he says Didn't I always say this guy was ahead of his time?' Context - The Christchurch earthquakes of September 4 2010 and February 22 2011 as well as the Japanese earthquake and tsunami of 11 March 2011.

A shaken All Blacks supporter stands under the title 'Shamrocked!!. Around him is a news report of a recent 3 point magnitude earthquake in Christchurch, and surrounding him are the familiar earthquake terms 'Very Shakey', 'faultines' 'shocks' and 'cracks appearing'.
On 16 June 2012, the Irish rugby team ('The Shamrocks' ) almost beat the All Blacks in Christchurch. The All Black team performance was poor, especially after their first win a week before. Co-incidentally, another earthquake had hit Christchurch. New Zealand fans were shaken by both events.

Text reads 'New fault lines?' and the cartoon depicts a Star of David as cracks in the ground. A second version has the text 'Aftershocks' and the cartoon depicts a shaky Star of David and big movements on a seismograph. The third version depicts the same image as the first but has the text 'SISpicious cracks'. Context: The Southland Times reported on 20th July that an Israeli national killed in the February Christchurch Earthquake was a Mossad spy. PM John Key has confirmed that an investigation into the four Israelis involved was carried out by police and the SIS but he said no evidence was found of a link between the group and Israeli intelligence. It would seem that the group were backpackers, not Mossad agents.
