If anyone really can’t be bothered to click on the article… the cartoon dates to 1993. I would rate it as pretty well known, it’s definitely been widely shared, but not everyone inhabits the same online spaces so I don’t think you’d need to have been hiding under a rock not to have seen it. Particularly anyone on here who’s under the age of … 40? 50? It was internet-famous in the 90s which means it’s going to predate the young’uns.

I’ve never seen that cartoon, and to add context I went on a New York internet users pub craw in 1994 (small enough to know most people’s name). So yes, it certainly wasn’t iconic at the time.
Still, it could be worse:

A fine example of life imitating art (Senator Blutarsky) in a new category of pulp non-fiction.

The Mona Lisa wasn’t iconic at the time.
You going to argue that it isn’t iconic now?
