In other recent comics, the president packs heat in Youngblood #9 as the White House comes under attack, with Obama alone and on-the-run after his Secret Service detail is killed in rather graphic violent fashion. And, in one of our favorites, he plays Barack the Barbarian in "Quest for the Treasure of Stimuli" back in sword & sorcery times.
