Can I just state for the record that I am a great lover of comic books. They are a way to escape the real world and enjoy a good fantasy. Also for the record, I am a Marvel boy. I enjoy Superman, Batman and the rest of the DC crowd but Marvel really rocks! My personal favourites are The Amazing Spider-Man, The Uncanny X-Men and The Avengers.
The reason I bring this up? Well, it would seem we have two new superheroes! McCain and Obama! Yes that’s right, both Senator McCain and Senator Obama feature in their own comic books. The comics are produced by IWD Publishing and tell the life stories of each candidate. You can download the comic on your iPhone or buy a printed version on Amazon. Watch the trailer below:
I don’t know about you but I just kinda feel that this is really dumbing down the presidential race. Let’s all try and read a real book from time to time, especially when it is something serious like an election. I think we should leave the comic books to the world of imagination and fantasy. Just my two cents worth.
