Barack Obama meets Spider-Man:

Just a few years ago, Spidey was spotted palling around with Donald Rumsfeld. Opportunist!

Man, did some Republican storm trooper cave in Spiderman's face with a rifle butt? :)

Did anyone read the Ultimate X-men in which Bush is stripped naked by Magneto?

I knew it! That wall-crawling little creep is just a waffling suck up! Why else would he wear a costume thats both red and blue? That way he can get in good no matter who wins!

Next he'll probably want on the S.H.I.E.L.D. payroll!

Wait, was that an X-Men, or was that just an Ian McKellen party tape?

He looks more like G.I. Joe's buddy, G.I. Nate.

MNG|1.15.09 @ 10:21AM|#

From the pic I assumed it was Sam Wilson.

Obama looks like black Harry Osborn. You laugh now, but when he starts throwing pumpkin bombs at the Inauguration I don't want to hear any whining.

Can he swing
From a web
Yes he can
He's the Prez
Look out
Here comes Obama-man.

tarran,

Apparently, the stormtrooper caved in his ears, too.

No offense intended, Sir Ian. I know you've got better taste than that.

|1.15.09 @ 10:47AM|#

joe, I must give you kudos for referencing the late 70's Spiderman TV show.

That aside, it disappoints me that the joking and irreverent Spiderman is sucking up to authority figures. With great power comes great reprehensibility.

Yes! Even as an anti-fan of Bush, that scene made me uncomfortable.

DC has it more correct. Darkseid has been reborn in his new 5th World Incarnation is is destroying the whole of existence with his fall after winning the war in Heaven. Plus, he killed Batman. And apparently, Batman killed him.

We need Batman.

I hope steve ditko isn't alive to see this, but hasn't Spidey's book been through enough shit these past couple of years. Man, if i didn't buy comics for my dad, i wouldn't even have spiderman in my pull.

THanks man, i haven't read it yet, thanks a lot.

(shakes fist)

Relax. There's as much chance of Bruce Wayne staying dead as there is a Libertarian government in the USA. (That made me sad typing that.)

He'll be back I'm guessing something in 2010. But, I do owe you and others an apology for spoiling it without giving warning.

I'm sorry. Get the bood anyway and do it soon. The last page was shocking. And I full well expected what was going to happen too.

|1.15.09 @ 11:05AM|#

Spiderman- just another star-fucker.

PAc|1.15.09 @ 11:18AM|#

It's cool man, i was just messing. I knew he was crooking it at some point in his own book or FC. although, nightwing as batman angst seems like such a 90s retread.

|1.15.09 @ 11:41AM|#

spidey's brainbox to jaw size ratio makes him look like a neanderthal in that pic.

I'm trying to remember the Spidey Man song from The Electric Company. Something like "Spidey Man, where are you going; Spidey Man, nobody knows who you are." I like to think that Morgan Freeman was Spidey Man.

|1.15.09 @ 12:10PM|#

ProL:

Spiderman/where are you comin' from, Spiderman/nobody knows who you are...

Danny Seagren was Spiderman. Morgan Freeman was Easy Reader.

Mister DNA|1.15.09 @ 12:10PM|#

PL, I think those are the correct lyrics. Perhaps Fargo North, Decoder will show up and give you a confirmation.

|1.15.09 @ 12:15PM|#

Ah, thank you Episiarch. I prefer to retain the illusion that Oscar® winner Morgan Freeman was Spidey Man, however.

Ska|1.15.09 @ 1:03PM|#

C'mon Spidey, you don't have to give him the fist pound just because he's black.

|1.15.09 @ 1:06PM|#

Ditko is probably rolling in his grave.

Is he fist pounding Spidey? Is that suppose to show he's hip?

So Marvel has introduced a character who was raised by an older couple from Kansas because his biological parents couldn't take care of him. They're clearly stealing from DC's intellectual property; I expect a lawsuit to be filed shortly.

|1.15.09 @ 1:37PM|#

I didn't know spidey was a terrorist.

Gruffbear|1.15.09 @ 2:40PM|#

Two attention whores. Feh.

He's not dead.
