Paul Richmond’s painting Batmobama and Robiden, which (obviously) depicts Sens. Obama and Biden as Batman and Robin and Sen. McCain and Gov. Palin as The Penguin and Catwoman, is making the rounds. (I saw it at Corey Lewis’ blog.)
If you’re into that sort of thing, you can purchase a 9.25″ x 14″ limited-edition print here. Or you can buy a Batmoboama and Robiden T-shirt here.
(And, yes, I realize there’s a McCain-Palin banner in heavy rotation at the top of the page.)

Oh, I get it. Republicans are evil. Wow. How edgy!

Love it! Not as much as I love the Alex Ross “Super Obama” picture, but it’s still great stuff.
And yes, I’ve been tired of seeing the McCain ads on this site. Haven’t the Obama people bought any here? Then again, at the risk of sounding overconfident, it looks like Obama’s doing well without it.

You’re tired of seeing the McCain ads? I’m sure you haven’t noticed that almost all of the political posts from Blog@ have featured pro-Obama comic related material, no?
And I don’t even like McCain…

I have no problem with Obama being depicted as a superhero, but I agree with Terry; this reeks of “Tee hee Republicans are badguys cause I don’t agree with them!”
Obama doesn’t need to resort to mudslinging, his supporters are doing enough of it for him.

Actually, McCain does resemble the Penguin.
Look up the video where he’s saying “How about her, ENNNHHHH?”

to me, the suggested theme is more in-line with the content.
that being, mccain and palin aren’t “evil”, they’re just laughable rogues. or should i say MAVERICKS?
and yeah, obama is a hero.

I think Obama is more like Superman and McCain like Batman … in the Dark Knight Returns.

Biden reminds me of the Joker, BTW.
