Spider-Man and Barack Obama Meet, Fist Bump

Cool.

Comic book nerds and fans of Barack Obama: get psyched. USA Today reports that on January 14th, "Marvel Comics is releasing a special issue of Amazing Spider-Man #583 with Obama depicted on the cover. Inside are five pages of the two teaming up and even a fist-bump between Spidey and the new president." It's been speculated that Obama has an inner comic book geek underneath his presidential suits, and he even mentioned the webbed one during his campaigning. Presidents have appeared in comics before, and Marvel says, "This is not so much a pro-Obama statement but a tip of the hat to having a Spider-Man fan in the White House."
