Obama to appear in Spiderman

Yes, it’s true.

Too bad the story sounds laaaaame:

The comic starts with Spider-Man’s alter-ego Peter Parker taking photographs at the inauguration, before spotting two identical Obamas.

Parker decides “the future president’s gonna need Spider-Man,” and springs into action, using basketball to determine the real Mr. Obama and punching out the imposter.

Mr. Obama thanks him with a fist-bump.

Unfortunate. Of course, this is still another notch on Obama’s list of accomplishments: decent basketball player, inspiration for a generation of young people, first African-American President….and now, collapser of the metaphysical barriers between fiction and reality.

And he hasn’t even taken office yet. Amazing.
