Found this on CBR.You know those comics with Obama on the cover, yet the story inside has nothing to do with Obama at all? You know, like what Savage Dragon and Spiderman (I think) did? I hate them. They just use Obama's face for bait n' switch, now that's Barack Roll'd. Usually the cover has a big close-up on Obama's face, smiling, and then the main hero would be behind him or next to him. Of course, there will be people who'd buy these comics for the Obama in it, not for the story, which will obviously be confused and irritated, especially if they don't even read comics.
However, it says here that Obama will be part of the story, like what Drafted: 100 Days will do, and I'm actually glad about this. Finally, a comic with Obama on the cover that actually has Obama in the story.
Little nitpick though; the Obama in this cover doesn't look like the real Obama much (in fact, I think the only similarity is that he's black.)
