Answer 2

The reason they are using all capital letters it to make the the printing easier to read. When the cartoonist draws the cartoon, he is working on panels much larger than the final product in the newspaper or magazine. He or she knows that the image will be greatly reduced. Block letters can be reduced without losing the legibility.

Caps mean that you're raising your voice, also it makes reading takes longer than reading lowercase

As in Comics they're characters, it's probably that they're speaking loud, so that's why the Caps comes in.
