At the Centre for Life we produced a Darwin newsletter with a cover by Simon Thorp (of Viz) and a cartoon portrayal of his life story by Hunt Emerson (of Fortean Times, and others). You can download a copy here: http://www.life.org.uk/downloads/darwin_newsletter.pdf (We felt that this, combined with our Darwin beer, was an appropriate way to celebrate a birthday!)
