I blogged a while back, when kids had come up with Donald Trump based titles for the comics we made in their Comic Art Masterclasses. Well, the trend shows no sign of abating, with these examples culled from classes at Latitude Festival, Bucharest, Hexham, Swindon, Birmingham, Bethnal Green, Chorley, Plymouth, Birmingham again, and Darlington.
We're only halfway through the year, and the election's not until November, so I'm expecting a lot more of this nonsense still to come. Trump is far and away the personality kids have chosen to feature in their work more often than anyone else. Simon Cowell still gets selected the most as the person to put into my demonstration strip, but to be drawn on the front cover, it's the wiggy nazi every time.
Kev F Sutherland, as well as writing and drawing for The Beano, Marvel, Doctor Who et al, runs Comic Art Masterclasses in schools, libraries and art centres - email for details, and follow him on Facebook and Twitter. View the promo video here.
