Cartoonists and comedians can find humor in most things - including the end-times.
At the links below you can find three Zits cartoons about 'the end' and the Mayan calendar.

By the way, there isn't any evidence that the Mayans predicted anything bad would occur at the end of the cycle of their 'long-count' calendar. Most Mayan archaeo-astronomers say that the calendar was designed to reset to 0.0.0.0.0 after it reaches 13.0.0.0.0 --- others say it will continue to 20.0.0.0.0 (approximately 8000 AD) and then reset, without any problems.
