The resulting sales stunt from the brand new idea will benefit the industry, says Gus Poulakas, owner of Silver Age Comics in Queens. "We'll get a couple of people coming in off the street, who didn't read a comic book in their lives, people wanting to get a piece of history," he said.
However, this is not the first time that a political figure has been featured on a comic, earlier Obama was also endorsed by the title character of Image Comics' ‘Savage Dragon’ at the time of his campaign. "Let me just say if John McCain had come out and said he was a big Spider-Man or Captain America fan, we'd do it for him, too," Quesada said
Well, the new edition will show what happens when a 'real' hero meets the 'reel' hero! Watch out kids.
