Obama featured in Spider-Man comic

Spider-Man has a new sidekick: The president-elect.

Barack Obama will be featured in a bonus story in Marvel Comics’ “Amazing Spider-Man” No. 583, which hits the stands Wednesday.

There will be two covers, one of them a special Inauguration Day edition that shows the wall-crawler with the commander-in-chief.

Obama collected Spider-Man comics as a child, so Marvel wanted to give him a “shout-out back” by featuring him in a story, said Joe Quesada, Marvel’s editor-in-chief.

“It was really, really cool to see that we had a geek in the White House,” Quesada said.

The story starts with Spider-Man’s alter-ego, Peter Parker, taking photographs at the inauguration, before spotting two identical Obamas.

So he springs into action, using basketball to determine the real one and punching out the impostor.

Obama thanks him with a fist-bump.
