Stan Lee talks Spider-Man/Obama comic

With all the hubbub going on with Amazing Spider-Man #583, the Washington Post’s Michael Cavna has taken an interesting angle on the news: ask the Man himself.

That’s right: Stan “The Man” Lee, otherwise known as the co-creator of Spider-Man.

In the interview, which you can read here, Cavna asks Stan about the Obama issue, the new status quo in the newspaper comic strip, and future Marvel films. An amusing highlight:

MC: If Obama did return the favor and reciprocate somehow, what would you want in return?
SL: I’d just like a Cabinet position. For comic books. I’d be secretary of comics — something simple.

Hey, I’d go to his press conferences.

    Asked about the current economic crisis facing the nation; Secretary of the Comic Book Stan Lee declared, “Nuff’ Said.”

    HA! Stan Lee would take credit for all of Obama’s ideas lol.
    But who better to pimp the industry from inside the gov than Stan the Man himself?
