The Onion | Barack Obama Names Alan Moore Official White House Biographer

Oh wow. And I just completed Swamp Thing 21-64. Obama is right. Alan Moore is a genius.

If ONLY this were true.


At a press conference Monday, President Obama announced that he had appointed legendary comic book writer Alan Moore as the official biographer of his time in the White House. “As evidenced by his epic run on Swamp Thing #21–64, Moore’s deft hand with both sociopolitical commentary and metaphysical violence makes him an ideal choice to chronicle my time in office,” Obama said of the author of Watchmen and From Hell, whom he reportedly chose over others on a short list of potential biographers that included Warren Ellis, Grant Morrison, and Bob Woodward.
