Frankenstein Walker Cover for The Progressive

Cover for the current issue of The Progressive, for a piece on the campaign to recall Wisconsin's Governor Scott Walker. The Progressive had already done one cover on this topic in the last few months, so this one focused on the risk if Walker doesn't get recalled - the risk to unions, specifically. After sending in a bunch of sketches, they chose my favorite, Scott Walker as a Frankenstein monster, attacking union picketers. At first I painted his face angry and threatening, but it just didn't have that hapless, goofy expression he always has on his mug, so I repainted it with his true-to-life doofus expression. Funny how someone who looks so dopey and ineffectual can be such a vicious and dangerous bastid.
