British Prime Minister makes cameo in comic

By Jessica Schneider Jun 7, 2008, 14:01 GMT

The AP reports that the British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, will be given a cameo appearance in a Marvel comic.

Captain Britain and MI13 is the comic that according to the AP: “shows the prime minister helping stave off an attack of evil, green-skinned aliens.”

The article notes that the author of the comic was in fact a Brown fan-- Paul Cornell is his name. He admitted to “admiring” the Prime Minister and the article also states he was interested in revealing him as an “effective” leader.

There is nothing wrong with optimism, some might say.
