A fun part of drawing political cartoons is ascertaining who the bad guy is, then taking aim. For decades, Iran has earned its global villain status, but old enemies shouldn’t get in the way of recognizing an opportunity to change.

Vladimir Putin is also a cartoon-worthy villain, but he actually has nukes.

Matt Davies is Newsday’s Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist.
