The Happy Chopper, 2003 print release presents an Apache helicopter against a child-like, blue sky background.  This work has appeared in a number of forms, but was originally created during the early 2000s to criticise the military industrial complex through the use of juxtaposition and humour. 

 

The contrast between the detailed representation of the helicopter with the cartoonish bow and simple clouds can be interpreted as denouncing militarism by presenting both child-like iconography and heavy weaponry in order to delegitimise the position of authority. This approach contiues throughout Banksy's work and is an approach common in protest and satirical art.
