Subj: I'd certainly welcome reading a Mr Epitome take on things.

The PVB has a history of taking real world and comic book world events and using them as fodder for its stories, either for a cheap laugh or serious commentary (and in the best case scenarios both).

Which brings us to America's recent Presidential election. I can say without hyperbole that the outcome of the race is the most surreal thing that's happened in my lifetime. Without getting too much into politics; a man who has been a punchline for over thirty years, who supposedly had no chance of becoming the "Leader of the Free World", just did.

So, yeah, the US's current political climate offers a lot of opportunity for parody. My question to the board is, do you have an opinion on what tack to take (or take to tack...le)? I have a couple of ideas personally, but thought to check and see if anyone else did before going through with my own plan and unilaterally setting the stage. All comments welcomed, and appreciated in advance.

President Roni Y Avis would be my first guess on the most Parodyesque take on it.

Or President Thighmaster.


But really, I'm happy for you to give us your take on it. He's your President after all.
