Guess who’s coming to star in an upcoming Spider-Man comic? It’s none other than Stephen Colbert, who’s running for president in the Marvel Universe!

Marvel is proud to reveal that Spider-Man and acclaimed television personality Stephen Colbert will join forces in an all new eight-page story featured in the extra-sized AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #573! Acclaimed writer Mark Waid and fan favorite artist Patrick Olliffe present Stephen Colbert, a candidate for the U.S. Presidency in the Marvel Universe, teaming up with Marvel’s most iconic crime fighter.

It’s really funny to see all of the Colbert ’08 posters everywhere in the comics. If I remember right, they even showed up in Mexico. It makes me chuckle.

Colbert is the greatest American hero in either universe.

Does that really look like him? Not so much, I think.

Anyway, kinda sad to see Marvel whoring out Spiderman like that.

Stephen Colbert is a phenomenon that continuous to garner alot of attention and fandom…and for very good reasons. Heck, I’m a Colbert fan as well. Great to see him now in comic book form…though I wonder why he doesn’t have the American Shield and cape on.

Colbert is a big fanboy that got in good with Marvel. Lucky dog – Id love to swing with Spidey or own Captain America’s shield.
