Obama Moe in New Korean Manhwa

obama-manwha-cover.jpg

A South Korean publisher has recently produced a manhwa, or Korean manga, detailing the early life of a young and distinctly moe Barrack Obama.

The author translated his manhwa from Korean in order to enter the American market with his works.

If the manhwa proves to be successful future moe biographies in the “Great Hero” series may be written for Mr. Obama’s secretary Hillary Clinton, Charles Darwin, and others.

The publishers expect the book to be such a success that they have reserved front table displays at major American bookstores and have set up an overseas office as well.

The manhwa itself will cover Obama’s life in Hawaii, visiting Kenya, and his Ivy League schooling. It seems unlikely it will be anything but a hagiographic paean to the great leader’s rise, with any controversy left out in favor of lionising Obama, as is the fashion.

The manhwa is targeted more toward children as an educational read, though it is doubtless Obamaniacs will snatch up the books poised for a mere 20,000 copy run, before children will ever get a chance.

For many Americans, it may be the only book detailing their President’s life that they will ever get time to read…

Via Publisher’s Weekly.

This is probably more to the liking of the Obama camp than the previous ero-manga

    I voted McCain, and I stand by my choice, because I think Obama is going to be the decay of this country.

    Not even American, much less Obamazombie. Try harder.

    All this useless hate on Obama piss me off. And I don't even think anything of him, since my knowledge is insufficient, due to the fact I do not live in the US.

    All this hate on Obama wasn't as high in the internet during his initial months campaign.

    Fine if you aren't a contrarian, but don't deny that all the hate, prevalence of hate, and exaggerate inflamated words on/of Obama went rocket skywards after all the Obamatards and his election to president.

    Some folks might wish to stop fiddling with their tinfoil hats and spend more time over at: snopes.com/politics/obama/obama.asp

    All neatly debunked with sources to back it up, and before anyone starts. The folks running Snopes are registered Republicans, so they don't have anything to gain by making Obama look good.

    I might not agree with their politics, but I definitely respect them for their zeal in exposing the truth and debunking rumors and myths.

    Vincenzo, he was killed because he was trying to do the right thing that is more than obama has accomplished so far. As Obama put us into space? prevent cuban missle crisis? Fight for the country by going into service? Save someone else life with a poor back by swimming for miles? I think you should apologize to jfk. Also he was in the midst of doing something about the federal reserve when he was killed. He was a great man and obama has yet to prove himself.
