Stephen Colbert has had comics and industry personalities on his show from time to time, but I didn't think he was a real comic books fan. I'm still not sure, though this is pretty interesting - from Marvel:
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 US Presidency in the Marvel Universe, teaming up with Marvel's most iconic crime fighter. What could bring these two together? And what will it mean for both their futures? This issue also features a special Colbert variant by Marvel EiC and industry superstar Joe Quesada! Plus, don't miss the stunning conclusion to the sold out "New Ways To Die" from the dream team of Dan Slott & John Romita Jr!
