A [Junk Charts](http://junkcharts.typepad.com/?ref=protein.xyz) reader tipped us about this chart that appeared on the front page of one of their newspapers. It announced: "Iceland banks are in a universe of hurt". As we all know, [Iceland is bankrupt](http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/10/09/business/icebank.php?ref=protein.xyz), and all its banks are spinning out of orbit. But is this outer-space concept successful in portraying the story? We think not. Read the detailed [critique](http://infosthetics.com/archives/2008/11/infographic%5Fcritique%5Ficeland%5Fis%5Fout%5Fof%5Forbit.html?ref=protein.xyz#extended) below.
