LOL...
[Mod Edit: We're glad you find it humorous, but you really need to add more to your post if you're going to discuss the topic, otherwise there's no need to post.]

The idea sounds great but the art is kind of terrible...
I'll stick with the Marvel issue, thanks.

If Obama himself commented on this book, I'd be interested. Until then, this is just another fanmade comic. What's next Michele Obama getting a comic next? Wait that already happened.
Edit: If this book is about our current president, why is the main character named Barry insted of Barack? Makes no sense if you ask me.

Tell me about it. I mean the part where they claim Obama's grandparents loved him just reeks of political spin.

The President called himself Barry throughout his childhood and much of his academic career before deciding to switch to his full name.

Let's see, theres the Spider-Man issue with Obama, the bio, the Savage Dragon, and some others that I can't remember. I know our new President is cool and all, but its starting to feel like overkill.

I hear Obama will be in the next chapter of Fullmetal Alchemist, taxing the hell out of the Armstrong family.
No good? Okay, let's try again.
I hear Obama will be in the next chapter of One Piece. It turns out he was the treasure Gold D. Roger was talking about.
I'm here all week, folks.

HahaHA! That sounds kind of funny when you picture it! I guess people just enjoy writing about Obama. This is his first year...I guess people won't write so many comics with him as time passes.

OMFG! Seriously, that's about all I can add. Wish I could come up with something more lucid than that, but... uh... OMFG is about all I've got.

A comic about Bo might be fresh air, as ridiculous as that is. Wasn't something similar done with Barney?

On the actual comic this thread is on: I am so buying it for the laughs. I have to wonder how accurate it is.

Uh, I get your joke, I get that it's about Bush, but yeah, someone scrolling through this thread might make another assumption here.
I've already banned someone for saying ridiculous crap in this thread and I'm not sure I really want to leave it open for more trolls to drop their oh-so-edgy hate remarks about the president, soooo yeah.

Yeah, after posting that I was thinking of removing it because it is indeed so prone to cause bad blood from any number of angles. But by then it had already been quoted. Certainly no hard feelings if you want to just remove all traces of it.
