Two 28-page comic books telling the lives of presidential candidates Barack Obama and John McCain hit comic book stands today.
Publisher IDW tells the Guardian that they took the ‘superhero' rather than ‘graphic novel' approach to the stories:
“… it would have been easy to appeal to more adult readers with a couple of moody graphic novels tackling McCain's incarceration and Obama's young life as the son of a single mother; instead the comics feature the pair in superhero poses against Old Glory rippling in the wind. Whoever wins this four-colour slugfest wins the right to save the world.”
