When you get down to it, the political comic is starting to go beyond Political Power, Female Force, and the Bo Obama bio comic Puppy Power.
Reuters is reporting that German Chancellor Angela Merkel will also be getting her own comic book called “Miss Tschormanie,” written by journalist Miriam Hollstein and drawn by political cartoonist Heiko Sakurai. The book chronicles Merkel’s rise to power, all the way through the open election in September.
The 64-page comic seems to be less serious fare, based on lines such as “You boys only belong to the past, I, however, have gone down in HISTORY!” Still, if you’re obsessive about your political comics, this might be something to look out for.

Hopefully someone will write a bio-comic about Benazir Bhutto someday.
