The Big Question.... If Romney Wins, Does He Get On The Cover Of Amazing Spider-Man?

This pretty much DC should a mitt cover haha

what


the


fuck

Actually, I can't wait for Erik Larsen to practically bow down and blow Romney on the cover of every other issue of SD, like he did with Obama.

Oh...but that won't happen at least until Romney gets his Nobel prize for also not being George Bush. I'll wait.

Nice to see that politics is bringing out the best in people as usual.

[Jason A. Quest]

Romney has already been on the cover:

It's an extremely low bar set by politicians themselves. Rooting for Obama and being honest about his numerous failings is the only legitimate position a sane person can hold.

Don't let the door hit you in your fat ass on the way out, Dan Slott. I'll pack you a bag, even.

While you're making moving plans, maybe you should hand over your cush writing gig to someone who might need a leg up and would appreciate it more? Spread the wealth around a bit, as Obama's fond of saying. You've had a long, successful run in the biz already -- it's only fair, after all.

No? Well then shut the fuck up, and take President Kardashian's impending ass-whooping like a man.

2 words, "HELL" and "NO". Let's be honest, Obama appeared on the cover of ASM for 2 reasons.

1. Because most (NOT ALL) of the people currently working for Marvel (editors and creators) are liberal Democrats.

2. Obama being elected as president was a major historical event that Marvel used to make a boatload of money off of.

You are -as usual -wrong.

The Obama thing happened because he gave an interview to a British paper saying he was a big Spidey (and Conan) fan and had quoted the character more than once. All candidates should do the same.


(Really you are a joke at this point. It's probably kinda smart that you're afraid to post this nonsense under your real name.)

So, you're saying that the known political leanings of most Marvel writers and editors (and really, most people working with any form of art anywhere in the world, notoriously left-leaning) and the fact that this was an obvious chance of making money had nothing to do with it?

Big Bird is owned by Sesame Workshop. not Disney.

Oh... haven't you heard the news?

[bewareofgeek]

Don't you know that Marvel only ever does things for the purest of motives? The whole variant cover phenomenon, for example, started as a way to give fans a choice... and (in the case of blank variants) a handy place to get sketches made.

They were shocked (shocked!) that it increased sales. It never even occurred to them.
