Bill Clinton

Few real-world figures have made as colorful a journey through the comic book page as Bill Clinton, who first appeared in World War 3 Illustrated #17 in 1992, brought to life by creator Barbara Lee during the dawn of the Modern Age. Over the course of an impressive 31-year comics presence, he's turned up across a wonderfully eclectic range of titles — from the satirical pages of Mad to the superhero gravitas of Captain America: Man Out of Time and Black Panther — rubbing panels with everyone from Hillary Clinton and Richard Nixon to Alfred E. Neuman and Joe Dredd. With 40 catalog appearances spanning three decades under the EC banner, he's one of the more enduring real-world presences in comics, a figure whose cultural weight made him irresistible to storytellers of every stripe.
