Sure is...there were morons out there paying upwards of $100 PER COPY for this issue of Spider-Man within a few days of its release. Marvel reprinted the crap out of this issue, and made a fortune. Fans? Screwed again by their own stupidity, as eBay clearly indicates...you can't GIVE these away now. (Just saw an ad elsewhere offering the hardcover collection of this crap at 75% OFF cover price. No takers, natch...)

That's pretty tame.I've been buying Previews (the monthly comic/pop culture) catalog since the early 1990s.(And before that Advance, if anyone remembers that.) From November 2008 till maybe 2-3 months ago, EVERY issue had MULTIPLE comics in it starring BHO. A few were "scholarly" comics purporting to tell BHO's life story in a straightforward manner, but there were also things such as Barack the Barbarian, President Evil (BHO as a zombie slayer), comics in which he 'met' characters such as Ash from the Evil Dead movies...And that's NOT counting comics created SOLELY to mock Sarah Palin, John McCain, Rush Limbaugh, various other conservative/Republican people...

Like I said, I've been buying comics and Previews since the early 1990s, and I have NEVER seen such lickspittle laudatory overexposure of a living "celebrity" in all those years, before BHO.

This crap leveled off dramatically in March 2010, and since then there have been a few issues of Previews in which there was either no BHO stuff, or I overlooked it-but you sure couldn't overlook the BHO cranked out immediately after 11/2008.
