Even better is the fact that as of last night Stephen Colbert is trying to use Obama's Spidey love to get him on the show. Says Comic Book Resources:
CBR News has confirmed that on Thursday’s episode of Comedy Central’s “The Colbert Report,” host Stephen Colbert will challenge Barack Obama to appear on a show, using the U.S. President Elect’s reported fanboy roots as bait.
In the final segment of the show, Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief will appear alongside Colbert and present the faux-conservative commentator with a copy of “The Amazing Spider-Man” #573 featuring a variant cover – illustrated by Quesada and Richard Isanove – depicting Colbert in the iconic pose seen on the cover of 1962’s “Amazing Fantasy” #15, Spider-Man’s first appearance.
Quesada and Colbert will both autograph the special issue, which Colbert will then offer to President Elect and Spider-Man comic book collector Barack Obama should he accept the invitation to appear on “The Colbert Report.”

THAT'S SO COOL!
Good stuff! I Love It!! Colbert makes me pee my pants:-)
I knew the president elect was one of us. I just *knew* it. Something about his Superman reference during that fundraiser..
No wonder I worked my ass off for his campaign.
Our president is a nerd. I am proud to be an American.
( plus, he's kinda cute).
Oh, yes, I agree--he is a total nerd and *very* cute. And congrats, crone51, for working on his campaign. I'm ashamed that I did, but at least I voted!
I want a comic book cover with me on it...
OOOH...I meant I'm ashamed that I *didn't* work on Barack's campaign...whew...I almost sounded Republican...ew!
So, uh, Obama for Nerd Man of the Month?
YES! Obama can be the President of the Nerd Man of the Month Club. ;-)
