I put a * next to kids whose names I recently changed, there is a ** next to kids that are new to this particular version of the list. The kids who changed ships but not names have ^ in front of them. ? aspect of the characters up in the air.

Bonus!Hisui:

Rei (aka Lucas) x Wanda (yes the NPC you have to keep hunting down in those side quests) their descendant eventually lead to Joanna and her daughter Dawn.

Irida x Adaman descendants eventually lead to Palmer, then Barry.

Calaba’s descendants stay in Sinnoh, and lead to Paul and Reggie. I am kinda subscribed to Brandon being their dad tho but he only goes to Hoenn for work. She is also an old holy woman with no kids to speak of in the games so maybe her line continues with a sibling or something.

Melli somehow leads to Harley. I know this man would never marry a woman but Harley comes from his loins somehow they are too fucking similar-

Akari is the ancestor to Lucas who eventually get’s thrown back in time. Thankfully they immediately pick up on the family vibes and just treat each other like brother and sister. Maybe she get’s with Wanda’s brother, Zeke, so that’s why Dawn and Lucas end up having similar appearances.

Cyllene x Prof. Laventon. Okay so this would make Cyrus, Leon and Hop related somehow but to add some degree to separation to that let’s just say Cyrus’s part of the family comes from a sibling of Cyllene. Also since Cyllene is someone who seems to care for others unlike Cyrus I want her to have the fun descendants. But Cyrus got the no eyebrows and bad at feelings part of that bloodline.

Iscan x Palina’s descendants lead to Marlon. It still works weather you acknowledge the weird tan or just pretend he’s that shade all the time. 

Tuli is the ancestor of Bianca, this was something I thought the moment I saw her in game but I am going to take something else from this video on ancestor speculation and say that she is also Ginter’s wife which would make Bianca and Volkner like cousins or something. (that video I linked is very good and it’s also where I got the Marlon idea from so go watch it 😊)

Total number of fankids: 55

What's your favourite oc's in the fandom and if you don't want to answer that, what's your favourite fc5 fanfics?

Wow, anon; you really want me to skate on thin ice, huh?

Okay, so, full disclosure: I'm still new to this fandom, and haven't yet explored all that people have to offer on here, but I do simp for my mutuals' OC and some of the OCs that float around my dash enough for me to recognize and go Heart Eyes Motherfucker: not gonna tag anybody, so: Wesley Brooks, Rafael Estrada, Lyra Fairbanks, Ryan and Jude Ramsey, Wren Blake, Randy Miller, Elizabeth Parker, Diana Baker, Rhiannon Hale, Rheese Bennett, Alice Riley, Minnow Winter, Cooper McCoy, Irina Carter, Evelyn McDaniel, Elle Parker, Billy Bluebird, Matthew Rook, Regan Faulkner, Hannah Ferris, August Anderson, the Jensen sisters, Colby Lobo, Alec Roberts. Those are just the few from the top of my head. I have a lot of simp to give, and there’s plenty of more to come once I venture out of my circles, to be sure. X

( and the fact that I only needed to fact-check two names is;;; disconcerting. )

As for fanfics: I only read a few of the top kudo-ed ones properly on AO3 as an introduction to the Far Cry 5 thotery sort of thing, and the ones I really loved were:

Devotion: A Family Affair by doodnoice—very ambitious and well-written; shame it doesn’t have more chapters.

come a little closer by lowtides—I fell in love with Jacob with this one.

Heroin by infradead—this slapped me so hard I decided to join a fandom because of it. Even became a John thot after. Wow.

Otherwise, I am hella open to some recs, and I still have a lot of fics to read that I had bookmarked for when I actually have the time for it. x

THE EXORCIST

William Peter Blatty received his M.A. in English from Georgetown University, served in the U.S. Air Force's Psychological Warfare Division, published several humorous novels, and collaborated with Blake Edwards on the screenplay for the second Pink Panther movie, A Shot in the Dark (1964) before writing The Exorcist in 1971.

The novel about the performance of an archaic Roman Catholic ritual that frees a 12-year old American girl from demonic possession was an unlikely bestseller. Warner Brothers hired Blatty to write the screenplay and William Friedkin, the recent winner of the Best Director Academy Award for The French Connection (1971). Given the grisly nature of the material, however, no major stars would go near the project. Against the studio's wishes, Blatty cast respected actors Ellen Burstyn and Max von Sidow and two novices, Jason Miller and Linda Blair, neither of whom had acted before.

The production itself seemed cursed. The special effects caused the set to burn down. Burstyn and Blair were both seriously injured during physically grueling stunts. Delays in shooting caused massive budgetary overages. A box office catastrophe was averted last minute cuts that saved the film from receiving an X-rating. When the film opened on the day after Christmas in 1973, these trials were amply were amply rewarded. Although it opened the mixed reviewed, The Exorcist quickly broke attendance and box office records. To date it is the 9th most profitable film ever released, earning close to $1 billion adjusted for inflation.

The Exorcist was more than a blockbuster success. Like Jaws and Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), the film's theatrical run became an event in and of itself. Audiences were instantly warned that this experience would be like no other: the film begins immediately after the title alone appears on screen with none of the customary opening credits. This device is commonly used now, but used for the first time in The Exorcist, its rejection of traditional cinematic conventions unnerved audiences. This was just the beginning, however. Evening news reports told of viewers waiting in lines for hours only to flee, faint, and/or vomit once inside. Air-sickness bags were distributed in theatres. Pregnant women were said to have miscarried during the film, while other viewers went into cardiac arrest. Parents were urged to leave children under 18 home. The hysteria surrounding the film amounted to a massive cost-free advertising campaign, building up expectations of horror that were not disappointed.

Over the course of six years, a group of critically-acclaimed films including Bonnie and Clyde (1967), The Wild Bunch (1969), A Clockwork Orange (1971), Dirty Harry (1971) and The Godfather (1972), had incrementally shifted the parameters of acceptable violent content in the name of art. Each step had also been decried by pundits for coarsening the popular culture. The Exorcist, which featured the explosive combination of the perversion of religion and the violation of childhood innocence, did away with the parameters altogether, relentless subjecting audiences to every imaginable abomination, blasphemy, and affront imaginable, violating taboo after taboo.

Offended, shocked and disturbed, audiences couldn't get enough of the diabolical machinations of the demon Pazuzu. Seen on screen for approximately one second, this ancient spirit of the underworld was no comicbook villain in a red jumper with a barbed tail and pitchfork. Capable of speaking Aramaic backwards and a master of visceral psychological warfare, Pazuzu is bad news and he's only a demon, not the Dark Lord himself. Few critics have noted that the exorcism's effectiveness against the demonic is never proven. Incapacitated by the titanic struggle, Father Merrick is unable to complete the ritual and Father Karras tricks the demon into quitting Regan, then does away with the new host. Mobsters can be gunned down, the droogies sent to re-education camp and the shark blown out of the water, but, Blatty’s text suggests, there might be no antidote to evil itself.

The Exorcist's grand guignol horror was so extreme and took such an unexpected hold on the public imagination that for a long time it was assumed that Blatty's narrative was a profound commentary on modern society, worthy of study and debate. The nature of that social commentary is in ways more disturbing than demonic possession. Burstyn's character Chris is a divorced, liberal actress, with openly gay associates. She is in Georgetown, the ground zero of the alleged leftwing elite, shooting a movie about campus anti-war protests. She is a allegorical personification and cariacture of counterculture values. The film strongly implies that her self-indulgent, secular life style and slack morals are have prepared the way for the demonic possession of Regan. Blatty believed the various social and sexual revolutions of the 1960s invited evil into the world.

That evil expresses itself as bizarre lewdness, both spoken ("Your mother sucks cocks in hell") and physical (masturbating with a crucifix, the sexualized desecration of the statue of the Virgin), recalling the Silent Majority’s disapproval of Lenny Bruce and Love-ins. Even priests are not always reliable. Unlike the saintly Father Merrick, Karras' faith is shaky and he practices that most secular and modern of professions, psychology. Despite his heroism, the flaws doom him in the film's rigid moral universe.

The devout Catholic Blatty coyly hedges his thesis by opening the film at an near eastern archaeological dig where Father Merrick appears to unleash Pazuzu inadvertently, but this red herring is quickly forgotten as the film goes on to demonstrate how the wages of the sins of Chris' self-indulgent generation are paid by the next.

The film's solution to modern depravity and immorality is less ambiguous: established religion alone has the moral force sufficient to purge society of sin. As Pauline Kael pointed out at the time, despite its full-frontal assault of the standards of decency of the day,The Exorcist amounts to a surprisingly reactionary apologia for the Catholic Church at its most arcane and medieval. This irony was lost of most observers. Just as the putative diary of a drug user Go Ask Alice became required reading for high school students, The Exorcist was for a while adopted by many a school district for its cautionary value.

Every month or so, we'll send out our recommendations, thoughts, and feelings on whatever we've been watching, reading, listening to, and talking about. For this first issue, we have provided a

survey

where we'd love for you to provide honest feedback. Thanks for reading, and hope you enjoy!

XOXO,

Your Beloved Brujas (Allison, Amy, and Ximena)

Music

Amy: Um, hello James Blake has a new album. Have you listened yet? Are you going to read the rest of this or just go listen to that album?

Allison: The music video for the remix to “bitches” by Tove Lo. This has been out for 6 months and I am offended that no one told me about it. Iconïc Scandinavian sexual energy.

Ximena: Sometimes you need a little reassurance of the sensual variety. These songs hit the spot (lol):

One Call Away — Chingy

How to Navigate — Little People

Are you all good? —breathe.

Movies

Amy: "Shoplifters" is a movie about a Japanese middle class “family” that has achieved much critical acclaim since it premiered in May and won the Palm d’Or in Cannes. I must say that I thought it was slow up until the last 30 minutes when the whole story gets turned on its head. It would be great if someone else would go see it so we can discuss.

Allison: “Vice.” Wow. If you liked the Big Short (I’ve only seen it four times), then you’ll like this. Very well done. [Ximena would like everyone to know that Allison PROMISED to see this movie with her but Allison betrayed her!!!]

Ximena: If you haven’t already, please watch Alfonso Cuarón’s (Gravity, Children of Men, Y Tu Mamá también) latest film “Roma.” It’s on Netflix! In Spanish! In black and white! It won two Golden Globes! Just woooooow.

Television

Amy: I watched four seasons of Schitt’s Creek over 2ish weeks (don’t judge). This show is a sleeper in the way that Arrested Deveopment was, but it grows on you and you will learn to love it. Season 5 just came out if you tryna binge this, too.

Allison: I Love You, America … was actually just cancelled after its second season..lol..BUT, it’s so genius! And such a refreshing point of view on politics. Or maybe I just think everything that comes out of Sarah Silverman’s mouth is gold..but I will never stop preaching about this show!!

Ximena: Elite was accurately described to me as Gossip Girl x  Big Little Lies x Riverdale. If that doesn’t sound appealing enough, know that the show somehow manages to weave in any and all hot button issues into a super sexy Spanish murder mystery plot.

Books

Amy: I read The Idiot by Elif Batuman and I don’t really have many opinions about it.  

Allison: Hyperbole and a Half. I know I am very late to this. But her voice is hilarious and so relatable, and the topics she writes about range from depression, to her mentally challenged dogs.

Ximena: Did you know that for every cell you have in your body, there’s nine microbes? 10% Human has completely changed my views on my personal health as well as the state of society’s collective health. Read it to learn “How Your Body's Microbes Hold the Key to Health and Happiness.”

Mixed Media

Amy: I have been super into the “My Favorite Murder” podcast since Marshall and I randomly downloaded it on a road trip. Don’t let the first 30min of banter get in your way (it’s called the skip button) because Karen and Georgia always manage to make murder/true crime fun!

Allison: “Seek Treatment” podcast with Cat Cohen and Pat Regan. Truly the “cackling-on-BART-hilarious” voices of our generation. And they promote a really awesome attitude of self-confidence that the world needs more of.

Ximena: Saturn Return is real and a girl needs as many supporters/pseudo therapists to make it through. Also, witches are trending. Queu my interest in the occult and dragging unsuspecting friends to a professional tarot card reading at The Sword and Rose. Verdict? Allison said it was “life changing,” and Amy found it “reassuring.”

15 Times A U.S. President Showed Up in Marvel Comics

Love him or hate him, as of January 20, 2017 Donald J. Trump has officially become the 45th President of the United States of America. However, what you may not have known is that this will also make President Trump the leader of the Marvel Comics Universe’s America.

RELATED: SALES OF MARCH SOAR AFTER DONALD TRUMP INSULTS JOHN LEWIS

Since the company’s humble beginnings as Timely comics, Marvel has made something of a tradition out of honoring American Presidents by featuring them in their comics. Though their appearances are sometimes little more than cameos or passing topical references, some of our nation’s leaders have been key figures for full issues or even in entire story arcs! Since we’ve just begun a new Presidency, there’s no better time for us to look back at 15 of the times an American President made an appearance in a Marvel comic.

DEADPOOL KILLS 31 ZOMBIFIED US PRESIDENTS

Back in 2012, as part of their MARVEL NOW initiative, Marvel relaunched Deadpool with a new #1 helmed by the creative team of writers Brian Posehn and Gerry Duggan, along with artist Tony Moore and colorist Val Staples. The book’s first arc (issues #1-6), appropriately called “Dead Presidents,” finds Deadpool being called in by S.H.I.E.L.D. to fight and kill reanimated versions of 31 US Presidents, spanning from George Washington to Ronald Regan.

Necromancer, a magical former member of S.H.I.E.L.D. with the ability to bring living creatures back to life, decides to reanimate all of the former Presidents of the United States in hopes that their guidance can save America from itself. This plan completely backfires when his magic not only corrupts the former Presidents, but also gives them superpowers. After deciding the best course of action is to destroy the country and start fresh, Deadpool (along with the ghost of Benjamin Franklin) is called in to take them all out and save America. It’s also worth mentioning that 39th President Jimmy Carter also makes an appearance in issue #1, even though he’s still very much alive.

FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT CALLS FOR BACK-UP

The 32nd President of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt began making appearances in Marvel comics all the way back in 1940 when Marvel was still known as Timely Comics. His first appearance was in issue #10 of Timely’s first series “Marvel Mystery Comics,” a book that featured multiple stories about some of Marvel’s earliest characters like Namor the Sub-Mariner, and the original (robotic) Human Torch.

FDR made his comic debut, in a story penciled by artist Steve Dahlman, that follows Electro (not to be confused with the Spider-Man villain), a Robot created by Professor Philo Zogolowski and funded by the US Government, to fight crime and corruption. When the villainous Cuban scientist Dr. Bruno Varoz develops a synthetic blood formula that allows him to reanimate human corpses, he creates an army of the undead and sends them to attack major American cities. When conventional means fail, President Roosevelt calls in Professor Zog and Electro to deal with Varoz. After defeating his armies and tossing him in a vat of acid, Zogolowski is personally congratulated by FDR for defending his country.

HARRY TRUMAN GETS KIDNAPPED

In a story by Stan Lee and Mike Sekowsky featured in issue #34 of “Human Torch Comics,” President Harry Truman is kidnapped by a two-dimensional being known as B4, who is the leader of his two-dimensional world of Flatula.

The issue begins with the original Human Torch and his sidekick, Sun Girl, watching a baseball game together, when suddenly the ball flattens and disappears mid-pitch. The game is then interrupted by the breaking news that the President has also vanished while addressing the public. Eventually the Torch figures out what’s going on and the duo travel to Philadelphia in time to see the words on the Declaration of Independence disappear. As the Liberty Bell starts to flatten itself, Human Torch and Sun Girl grab on, transporting themselves to Flatula.

After being captured by the locals and taken to B4, the Torch and Sun Girl are taken to a zoo holding everything stolen from the 3-dimensional world. When the Torch finally Flames on, he discovers that since fire is 3-dimensional, he and Sun Girl are immune to the effects of the flat dimension. They then burn everything between them and the zoo before freeing the captives and returning home with B4 as their prisoner so that the Flatulans can never kidnap anyone again.

DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER GETS KIDNAPPED

In “What If?” #9, by writer Don Glut and artist Alan Kupperbuerg, Iron Man calls a meeting with Avengers members Captain America, Thor, Vision, and Beast to show them his newest invention, a dimensional viewer. He explains that the device allows them to see a video feed of an alternate Earth where another group of heroes somewhat similar to the five of them also founded a superhero team called The Avengers, albeit in the 1950s.

F.B.I. agent Jimmy Woo recruits Marvel Boy, 3-D Man, Gorilla Man, the Human Robot and the goddess Venus to rescue President Dwight D. Eisenhower from the supervillain Yellow Claw and his Masters of Evil-style team of villains made up of the hero’s individual nemeses. After completing their mission, President Eisenhower disbands the team, believing that learning about super-powered beings like The Avengers would send the public into a panic. The “Avengers” agree and disband until a time when their world needs them again.

MERLIN TRIES TO STEAL AMERICA FROM JOHN F. KENNEDY

In his last contemporary appearance in a Marvel comic, and just a few short weeks before his assassination, President John F. Kennedy almost has the country stolen right from under him by Merlin the Wizard in “Journey into Mystery” #96, by writers Stan Lee and Robert Bernstein, and artist Joe Sinnott. We learn that Merlin is in fact a mutant who used his powers of telepathy, levitation, and teleportation to fake magic.

Shortly after using his powers to send a missile test off course, Merlin teleports himself to Washington D.C. and storms the White House intending to take control of the country from JFK. Thor and Merlin duke it out on the White House lawn with Merlin using the Washington Monument as a giant spear, and animated the Lincoln Memorial statue with his “magic” for back up. Realizing their powers were pretty evenly matched, Thor decides to throw a Hail Mary and turn back into his old alter ego, Dr. Donald Blake, in an attempt to convince Merlin that he’s a shapeshifter with countless more powerful forms. Merlin buys Thor’s tall tale, so Thor commands him to return to his sarcophagus for another 1,000 years.

LYNDON B. JOHNSON PARDONS BRUCE BANNER

President Lyndon B. Johnson really had his hands full as the President of Marvel’s America. While he was in office S.H.I.E.L.D. was founded, he reunited Nick Fury and the Howling Commandoes, and Kang the Conqueror nearly took over the planet. He was also a fairly prominent figure during a few Hulk storylines back when the character was gracing the pages of “Tales to Astonish.”

In issue #64, written by Leon Lazarus and drawn by Carl Burgos, Bruce Banner finds himself locked up in a government prison after allegedly attempting to steal an invention he created for the army. Bruce is moved to Washington D.C. for a trial, and receives a visit from Rick Jones who tries to convince Bruce to reveal himself as the Hulk. Bruce refuses, believing that exposing himself could put America at risk if their enemies learned who he was and how he got his powers. He remarks that he could only expose his identity to someone who he knew would never let the information get out. This gives Rick the idea to pay a visit to none other than President Lyndon B. Johnson himself. After flashing his official Avengers card, he gets an audience with the President and earns Bruce Banner a pardon.

RICHARD NIXON STAGES A COUP

You may know he was also the Commander-in-Chief during Galactus’ assault on Earth, but are you aware that President Richard Nixon also acted as Number One, the leader of the Secret Empire? Originally a satellite organization of HYDRA, by the time Nixon is their leader, the Secret Empire is an independent group seeking to overthrow the American Government by capturing mutants (including notable X-Men like Beast, Angel, and Ice Man) and channeling their powers into a flying saucer-like super-weapon.

In “Captain America” #175, written by Steve Englehart and drawn by Sal Buscema, we see Cap, The Falcon, Cyclops, and Jean Grey (still acting as Marvel Girl) are able to defeat the members of the Secret Empire, but Nixon escapes into the White House before being corned in the Oval Office by Cap. Rather than accepting his capture, Number One removes his mask, revealing his identity to Cap (but not the reader) as a high ranking government official before committing suicide. Though we don’t see Nixon’s face, the implication was so clear that Marvel tried to distance themselves from the story’s connection to the Watergate scandal in the issue’s letters section. However, writer Steve Englehart has since come out and said he absolutely intended Number One to be President Nixon.

GERALD FORD IS ALMOST ASSASSINATED

In “Incredible Hulk” #185, by writer Len Wein and artist Herb Trimpe, President Gerald Ford is scheduled to visit the Hulkbuster Base to congratulate Colonel Glenn Talbot on escaping from Russian captivity. It just so happens that Colonel John Armbruster has also captured Bruce Banner, tranquilized him, and locked him up deep beneath the Hulkbuster Base. When President Ford arrives at the base later that day, he’s shown around by Talbot, General “Thunderbolt” Ross, and Ross’ daughter Betty. Ross takes the President down to where Banner is being held to brag about his capture, and Bruce even mocks Ford by calling him Vice-President (Ford was VP until Nixon’s resignation, if you recall).

As the trio shows the President around the base, Armbruster learns from a secret report that Talbot’s “escape” was actually a plot by the Russians, and that the man they believe to be Talbot is in fact a Russian spy with a bomb implanted in his chest who was sent to kill President Ford. Without warning, Armbruster bursts into the room and tackles “Talbot” over the edge of a railing. The spy’s body then explodes, killing both of them in the blast.

JIMMY CARTER (AND GERALD FORD) RUN AGAINST HOWARD THE DUCK

In the Marvel Universe, the 1976 Presidential race was between incumbent President Gerald Ford, the man who defeated him, President Jimmy Carter, and…Howard the Duck. While working as a security guard for the fringe “All-Night” Party, Howard learns the group’s leader has recently dropped out and they’re looking for a new candidate. After he discovers a bomb’s been placed in the crowd, Howard rushes on stage during the new candidate’s speech and manages to save everyone by sacrificing the event’s giant cake to smother the bomb, and the group immediately names Howard their new candidate.

Despite numerous attempts on his life and disagreements with members of his party, Howard manages to craft a solid platform. He vows to crack down on pollution, cut military spending, give amnesty to draft-dodgers, strive for bipartisanism and improve education. While neither Presidents Carter nor Ford take Howard seriously, he still manages to poll with 30% of Americans saying they’d vote for him (although 48% said they would kill him), before a doctored photo of Howard taking a bath with his sidekick Beverly begins a sex scandal in “Howard the Duck” #8, written by Steve Gerber and drawn by Gene Colan, that quickly ends his Presidential bid.

RONALD REGAN FIGHTS CAPTAIN AMERICA

“Captain America” #344, written by Mark Gruenwald and drawn by Kieron Dwyer, tells a story where the supervillain Viper (later known as Madame Hydra) poisons Washington D.C.’s water supply with a mutagenic agent that causes people to hallucinate and turn into “Snake-Men.” President Ronald Regan is one of the many people affected by the toxin, and Steve Rogers (then acting as The Captain) fights him inside the Oval Office.

Ronald Regan strips down to his underwear as he succumbs to the mutagen, gaining scales and super powers. He then attacks Cap, who is forced to evade rather than fight back in order to keep from killing the President. Luckily for both of them, Regan sweats enough during their brawl to work the toxin out of his system, and he quickly loses his scales and returns to his human form. We’re shown that he at least temporarily retains his sharpened canines, but unfortunately Regan’s days as superhuman seem to end here.

GEORGE H.W. BUSH HAS PLAUSIBLE DENIABILITY

Our 41st President, George H.W. Bush, makes arguably the least significant appearances of all the Presidents on this list. That being said, he did make a handful of fairly notable cameos in the first volume of “Iron Man” during the late ’80s and early ’90s.

He made his debut in the Marvel Universe in “Iron Man” #247, written by David Michelinie and Bob Layton, who also acted as a penciler for the issue. President Bush briefly appears on television to claim he had no knowledge of collusion between the F.B.I. and the crime syndicate known as the Maggia. He later returned to the book in “Iron Man” #277, by writer John Byrne and artist Paul Ryan, when he’s alerted that hidden missile silos across the Midwest have launched nuclear warheads straight at Russia as part of a Soviet plot to begin World War III (Iron Man and Black Widow intervene and save the day, though).

BILL CLINTON EXILES CAPTAIN AMERICA

President Bill Clinton is featured prominently in the four-issue miniseries celebrating Cap’s 50th anniversary, “Captain America: Man Without a Country.” His first appearance in the arc is in “Captain America” issue #450, by writer Mark Waid and artist Ron Garney, when President Clinton charges Cap with treason and exiles him from U.S. soil.

After meeting with Sharon Carter in London and getting a new uniform without the stars and stripes, the duo travel to Moldovia, where the villain Machinesmith has built an Argus Cannon to try and force a conflict with the U.S. While trying to invade the base where the cannon is being held, Cap and Sharon get captured and taken to Machinesmith, who then explains that he’s stolen the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier’s override codes. He directs the carrier to crash into a nearby mountain while he teleports to Camp David to assassinate the President. Cap is ultimately able to foil the Machinesmith and save President Clinton, earning his thanks and the reinstatement of his citizenship and title as Captain America.

GEORGE W. BUSH PASSES THE SUPERHUMAN REGISTRATION ACT

Marvel’s 2006 “Civil War” event kicks off when the New Warriors, a group of superheroes with their own reality show, take on a group of villains way out of their league in a quest for ratings instead of calling in the Avengers. Among the villains they attack is Nitro who during the conflict, explodes and kills over 600 people (including 60 children). Tony Stark is accused of being responsible for the culture of superheroes (due to him bankrolling The Avengers) by one of the children’s parents, so he decides it’s time for him to get involved.

In response to growing public demand for greater accountability from superheroes, President George W. Bush meets with Stark, Reed Richards and Hank Pym in “Civil War” #1, by writer Mark Millar and artist Steve McNiven, to develop the Superhuman Registration Act. He expresses his concern that Captain America is the figurehead for the rebellion, and asserts that they will need their own figurehead before Iron Man steps forward to tell him that they will deal with Cap.

THE CHAMELEON TRIES TO REPLACE BARACK OBAMA

In “Amazing Spider-Man” #583, written by Mark Waid and drawn by Barry Kitson, the supervillain known as the Chameleon attempts to impersonate and kidnap President Barack Obama on his Inauguration Day so that he can take his place as the next President of the United States. The real Obama manages to escape and his Vice-President – Joe Biden drives – him to the inauguration to stop the Chameleon.

Peter Parker is also in D.C. trying to sneak into the inauguration without a press pass. Just as he’s about to be arrested for trespassing, Senator John McCain recognizes Peter as a photographer for the Daily Bugle and gets one for him. Once inside, Peter sees that two Obamas have arrived to the inauguration, so he becomes Spider-Man and exposes the imposter by asking the two of them a series of questions that only the true President Obama would know how to answer.

DONALD TRUMP THREATENS TO SUE LUKE CAGE

President Donald Trump’s appearance on this list is unique because, due to his celebrity status prior to the election, he’s the only President whose appearance happened before his actual Presidency. In what is arguably the least flattering appearance on this list, Trump is briefly shown getting into a conflict with Luke Cage in “New Avengers” issue #47, written by Brian Michael Bendis and drawn by Billy Tan and Michael Gaydos.

When Trump’s limousine is blocking the way of an ambulance trying to respond to an emergency, Luke Cage lifts the vehicle out of the way before carelessly dropping it back on the street. Trump jumps out and threatens Luke with a lawsuit, but Cage responds by slamming his hands on the hood and screaming at him to “Get (his) ass back in the car!” This causes Trump to retreat to his limo and rolling up the window as a crowd of civilians applaud.
