Barry Blitt’s “Guzzler”

When President Trump announced the U.S. military’s capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, the cartoonist Barry Blitt decided that his image for the cover of the January 19, 2026, issue could hark back to Gilded Age political cartoons that skewered the oil barons and petty tyrants of the era. “After years of depicting Donald Trump, I did not need any photo reference to draw this,” Blitt said. “His features are chiselled into my visual memory, and I’m not particularly thrilled about it.”
