Chinese artist SuperBen hopes to bring some laughter to world politics by making funny – even zany – illustrations of today’s world leaders. There is not much known about the Hangzhou illustrator except that he chooses leaders who have been the most controversial.

His comic-like work features such heads of state as Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Il, Bashar Al-Assad, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and even Barack Obama. These leaders, who in their day have produced their own amount of propaganda to the masses, have become entertaining propaganda images themselves through SuperBen’s hand.
