WOAH! I had this exact same idea about a week ago! You’ve beaten me to it! I happened to stumble across your creation when googling hegemon while accidentally in images. Good work! Photoshopping leaves a little to be desired but your descriptions are absolute gold!
I don’t know who you are, but you’ve brightened my day!
Well thank you! It’s hard to find polisci/IR geeks who are also closet Pokemon fans…which I’m assuming is the combination required to not think I’m a complete idiot for posting this. Good luck with your future odd comic photoshopping pursuits.
OMG! THATS SO AWESOME I LOVE THAT!LOL
