HE'S tattooed from head to toe, a warrior-like mix of blue, green and red. He's also running in a surprising third place ahead of this week's Czech presidential elections.
Vladimir Franz, an opera composer and painter, seems the most unlikely of candidates for a prestigious post previously held by beloved playwright-dissident Vaclav Havel and Vaclav Klaus, a professor credited with plotting the economic transition from communism.
But he's not short of admirers in a country where voters are tired of politicians they say are corrupt and failing to deliver on years of promises.
Franz has no political experience but has generated much goodwill.
