Spidey and Obama tag-team against evil | Obama featured in Amazing Spider-man | January '09

PH2009010802341.jpgHopes are high for President-Elect, Barack Obama. After campaigning on a platform of change, Obama has got everyone on board with his agenda, including superheroes!

In the upcoming issue of Amazing Spider-man there will be a bonus story entitled "Spidey meets the President!" where Obama and our friendly neighborhood Spiderman team up to foil an evil plot to replace the real President with a fake. Not to give away the full storyline, but it involves long-time Spiderman villain, The Vulture, and a mean game of basketball -- holy hijinks!

Check out the story -- with Obama on the cover no less -- on comic store shelves January 14.

Barack Obama's book, "The Audacity of Hope," features a catchy title. It has an idea of bravery mixed with full confidence. You'll find nothing Pollyanna about that. I may well not support everything he says, but he's our president, and then for me, he inspires confidence. That can do more for a nation than any amount of backroom deals. Hope gives us energy, and energy sustains us through trying times. Boy, we've had them. I'm from West Texas, and I did not vote for Bush. When McCain ran against Obama, I was a citizen of Arizona, but I gave audacious hope a chance. The fight for progress and laying the foundations of prosperity is not over. I've seen the quips of those that don't think Obama can do it. But step back a second. Would anyone have all of us fail just to tarnish the star of an incumbent for whom they did not vote? Trying to keep our priorities straight, let's work together with our president and build our future.
