The painting captures a poignant tableau of children gathered around a substantial table, engrossed in a game of soldiers. It stands in stark contrast to its predecessor, "Soldiers of the Third World 1", where children reenact battles with traditional tin soldiers representing warriors of bygone eras.

In this rendition, titled "Soldiers of the Third World 2", the youthful players immerse themselves in the personas of popular comic book and film characters, embodying the futuristic warriors of tomorrow. Superman, Batman, and Spider-Man share the stage, joined by Transformers and teenage mutant ninja turtles, forming an eclectic assembly of iconic heroes.
Above the table, where these vibrant figures are stationed, the children orchestrate a high-flying aerial battle between a Soviet and a German ace. The intensity of their playfulness contrasts sharply with the sobering undertone beneath the table. Here, a pile of weathered shoes, remnants from the Auschwitz or Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum, bear solemn testament to the horrors of the Second World War. These discarded footwear, once worn by men, women, and children, serve as an evocative symbol, encapsulating the harrowing apex to which conflicts of the past have led.
