Obamamania!




What happens when you change the face of history as we know it? You get immortalized as collectable products, that’s what!

President Barack Obama has shown up in some pretty nerdy places lately. We saw him make an appearance in Marvel Comic's Amazing Spider-Man #583 where he gives the webcrawler a fist bump- awesome for President Obama, who admittedly collects Spider Man comics!

Then we have the Obama action figure, complete with a change of ties, hand gestures and… light sabers? OK, maybe that’s some fanboy’s add on, but the possibilities are endless!

Coming up this month, Wizard will be giving away an Obama card from Topps with their 212 issue (out April 29th) You can get full Obama trading card sets from the Topps website, featuring moments from his childhood all the way up to the historic election- there’s even a “Rookie Card” of Obama when he played Basketball!

Do you know of another way Obama has been personified in geekery? Let me know!
