It‘s Election Day here in the U.S., so what better day to learn about 1973 DC Comics superhero The Prez?
The quote on the top of the right page says, “One thing bothers me—if the clocks aren‘t on time, how do we know when it‘s election day?” 😂

Paid about a buck for the book and 3 for the bookmark. I‘m admittedly not a huge Buffy fan (I prefer the movie) but I thought the wooden bookmark was too awesome to pass up.

I love this book some truly odd heroes in here. I love stuff like this and I‘m always looking for quirky comics to add to my collection. Looks like I have another one to add to the want list now 😉

I forgot to mention that I found these at the library earlier! Should make for some entertaining reading while I wait to hear back on yet another house offer...

I think there's no room for new superheroes. Everything good has been done already. Debuting in 1940, Madam Fatal is "a mix of the films Taken and Mrs Doubtfire"...
