Before Watchmen: The Comedian #6

[cyberghostface]

“[The Comedian] would be friends with Obama as well. He moves in that kind of circle. Once you're president, there's blood on your hands — there's no way around it.” — Brian Azzarello

In the next issue, the Comedian stages the Chappaquiddick Incident in a failed attempt for the Kennedy Hat Trick.

I don't think I agree that the Comedian would've been friends with Obama... not because I think Obama's too pure to shake a wetworks specialist's hand, but because Obama, unlike the Kennedys, didn't live a lot of his pre-presidential life in the spheres of power that would've allowed him and Eddie to meet. They could've been friendly colleagues, maybe, on an ask-me-no-questions-and-I'll-tell-you-no-lies basis, assuming Eddie wasn't too public with his brutality at that point. But there wouldn't have been the years of history together that this story invokes.

It should be said as a fan of Spider-Man and Conan, it'd be interesting to see Obama interact as someone who's kinda maybe a cross between both?
