Description	This print depicts a family of wealthy calaveras being followed by a mob of campesino Calaveras brandishing a gun, machete and a torch. One smaller skeleton wears a black ski mask emblematic of EZLN (Ejercito de Liberacion Nacional) attire. They tread upon skulls marked with the initials of the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) , the Partido de Accion Nacional (PAN) and the Partido Revolucionario Democratico (PRD). There is also a calavera skull upon the ground with a swastika symbol. A tombstone on the bottom left corner bears the initials PFP for Policia Federal Preventativa. The message being held by one of the campesinos says “Ya llego la apocalipse pa los ratas” A calavera style spider sits on its web in the central part of the image. The paper has the ASARO intaglio stamp of a finger on the trigger with barrel pointed at the viewer for the "O".
