Marvel Comic Books
We have read them, throughout the years and have followed them like a cult following and even now as they create more films with our favorite characters we can’t help but buy the DVD. Marvel comic books have been around for a long time and have entertained us as kids and still do for most people as adults too. Who can even forget the famous words of the Hulk “smash em” or “Hulk Smash” which usually where the only words he spoke and of course “my spider senses are tingling” which was what Peter Parker, who is basically Spiderman would say when he felt trouble was on the way.
Over the years the way the comics were changed and infact they can now be downloaded from internet or read online, which now takes comic books even further than they could get before, and they are now reaching people who had never heard of Daredevil or Electra nor read about them.
The Marvel Comic Books have through the years changed with different artist taking over the helm of drawing the character according to the original only with their design, making also the theme of the comic books change. The new ones have even changed the outfits with Wolverine’s tight yellow spandex suit being replaced with leather black and blue. The story has also changed with the times and the presidents that have come and gone as well as the disasters that have happened.
Even with all the changes that has gone on all over the world we still see fit too look for a comic store so as to see what is new in the life of Spidey, X men, Fantastic Four and many other characters that have been portrayed in the Marvel Comic Books.
Female Political Superheroes Comic Books
Michelle Obama. A wife, mother, sister, friend, First Lady, and last but not least a superhero. First Lady Michelle Obama is the newest superhero, or should we say superwoman, in a new series of comic books called the Female Force series. President of Bluewater Productions, Darren Davis, came up with the idea. The comic book series features strong, influential, political women that have helped change the world in a positive manner. Other superhero women featured in the series are Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, Senator Hillary Clinton, Princess Diana, and Caroline Kennedy; just to name a few.
First Lady Michelle Obama’s twenty-five page comic features her life story. The story starts with her life in Chicago and living on the south side, it also describes her college career at Princeton, and goes on to describe her life during the campaign trail. There are aspects of Michelle Obama’s life that most of the public does not know about, but will be revealed in the comic book. For example, there is a link between Barney the Dinosaur and the First Lady.
Senator Hillary Clinton’s comic was a thirty-two page issue. It featured her story as a feminist as well as working towards her nomination for president. Neal Bailey wrote this issue and said that she is an underrated historical figure of our time. He was quoted saying this on the Bluewater Production’s website. Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s comic is also a thirty two page issue. It highlights a biography of her life starting from the time she was the president of the Parent Teacher Association. It also tells about her nomination as John McCain’s running mate for their bid as president and vice presidential candidates. Her comic was written with two potential endings; one with her one and the second with her loss for entering the White House.
The comic books have certainly become a hit and have sold out of the first and second printed copies. A third printing of Senator Hillary Clinton and Governor Sarah Palin’s copies are planned so that interested parties can purchase and read about the women’s stories. Not only are these comic books entertaining, they are educational and controversial. The new series Female Force teaches the readers about independent women’s lives, and can also inspire a new generation to become an iconic role model. Girls and women that have helped shape modern history can be displayed in through a tasteful comic book series that represents them in a positive light.
