Artist Robert Sikoryak draws attention with his newest project, which involves a collection of Donald Trump's quotes during the 2016 presidential campaign transformed into classical comic covers.
"Unstoppable Trump" is a Tumblr blog that shows a collection of comic book covers that features the likeness of Donald Trump and several of his controversial quotes as it is. Sikoryak got the idea during the 2016 campaign season and said that he wanted to catalogue all the controversial things that Trump has said so far, according to an interview with the Huffington Post.
The artist emphasized that "It was important to me to only use Trump's actual quotes, I didn't want to put any words in his mouth." All the quotes featured in Sikoryak's thought-provoking comic book covers were lifted verbatim from Donald Trump, as per Gizmodo.
The comic book covers features series such as "Richie Rich," "Archie," "X-men," "Batman," "Captain America," "The Walking Dead," and even "Adventure Time". Sikoryak says that the reaction to these illustrations have been more supportive than he expected and he is grateful for that.
Sikoryak is not the first artist to depict Donald Trump as a comic book villain, as that was done first by Marvel Comic's "Spider-Gwen Annual" featuring a Trump-inspired villain named M.O.D.A.A.K. The artist however is known for his use of satire and using adaptations of classical comics to frame complex issues, as per ScreenRant.
Each comic book cover that he has done for "Unstoppable Trump" is referenced with the artist that Sikoryak is paying homage to. While those with strong political leanings might either like or dislike his work given the subject, those who lean neutral might admire the artistic value of the comic book covers instead and compare them with the original.
