The soon-to-be First Lady of the U.S., one Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama, now gets to be the star of her own comic book.
The company publishing this book already has created comic books about Obama’s husband (you may have heard of him: President-elect Barack Obama), Sen. Hillary Clinton, Sen. John McCain and Gov. Sarah Palin.
The book apparently will attempt to:
…follow Obama, a Princeton- and Harvard-educated lawyer, from her youth on the South Side of Chicago to her community, civic service and private-sector career successes through the 2008 presidential campaign and election day.
Eh. The thought is nice, although I’m not sure the artist actually has seen Michelle Obama, because that likeness…isn’t great.
It comes out in April 2009.

This is awesome. But you’re right, the picture could be better. They got the eyebrows right, though…!
I luv what you guys are always up to
Couldn’t be written any better. Reading this brings to mind my old school colleague! He always kept talking about this.
I agree with you. Which is not something I usually do! I like reading posts that will make one rattle their head. Also, thanks for allowing me to comment!
