LIBARRO WORLD (Deaniac, Miss Rodham, Lt. Kerry & Teddie)

The Washington Times ^ | June 30 2006 | Mike Mackey

[Mike Mackey]

Publishers of "the world's first conservative comic book" have created a hilarious political satire called "Libarro World," in which a Berkeley professor's flawed duplication ray created imperfect pro-President Bush copies of Sen. John Kerry (a pro-military warrior), Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (a sultry anti-feminist), Howard Dean (an unexcitable ultragenius) and Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (a distinguished teetotaler). In the series, the real four Democratic leaders set out to destroy each of their conservative clones.

The Washington Times mentioned our comic today, since there was no link, here is one:

[plain talk]

Don't recognize any of these characters. They don't even look close. I think this is a great idea but execution is lacking.

[Bigh4u2]

The figure on the left, that is supposed to be Kerry, looks more like a REAL war hero!

Oliver North..

[Screamname]

Yeah why is Hellary a brunette? And where are her horns and tail? And why does Kennedy have a clear face? It must be made purple-red and his nose must be made all deformed from the busted blood vessels from the half century plus drinking of hard liqour. Observe the horror....

This may be the greatest comic book every written. I can not wait to buy it!

[plain talk]

well the writing is OK but the artistry is awful.

[TSchmereL]

The Liberality Comic appears to be better.

Ollie is here.

Perhaps we do need a new superhero now that Superman only stands for "Truth, Justice, and all that stuff."

[TSchmereL]

Kerry has huge muscles in this comic! That seems weird.

[sageb1]

The "artistry" isn't awful. It's actually quite good, but I don't think I'd ever make the mistake of making the enemy look good - even in Bizarro Libarro World.

[TSchmereL]

The Synopsis of Liberality says:

America’s future has become an Orwellian nightmare of ultra-liberalism. Beginning with the Gore Presidency, the government has become increasingly dominated by liberal extremists.

With the exception of the Gore Presidency, this sounds like nonfiction.

[plain talk]

The characters aren't even recognizable except with nametags. I think its a poorly executed job. Get some new artists and it would be OK.

[sageb1]

"this sounds like nonfiction."

It is!

[sageb1]

"The characters aren't even recognizable except with nametags."

This is true. Not sure what Kerry on steroids would look like, but I had to recheck the title of the vanity to see who they were. I will rephrase. The artwork itself is good. Caricature needs work.

[Bigh4u2]

Cool site!

Thanks.

And I agree!

[9999lakes]

What a great idea! Why didn't I think of that?
That is NOT a rhetorical question.

[Defiant]

Ain't Miss Rodham a Babe?

That would be in Bizarro World, not Libarro World.

[plain talk]

Yes, I was only referring to the caricatures not the artwork, backgrounds etc. Sorry for confusion. If they could fix that it would be an excellent product.

[ladyinred]

ROTFL! Very funny stuff.

[ladyinred]

I can tell who they are.

[plain talk]

Well some people have low standards I suppose. The characters were awful but story line was OK. If they could fix that they might have something. Without good caricatures it will not be very effective. I think this is a great idea that shouldn't be botched.
