Drafted One Hundred Days One Shot
.

Humanity has repulsed the first wave of alien invaders-but the battle has left much of America in shambles. As the coldest winter in a century assaults the starving, shell-shocked populace, it falls to a former U.S. Senator to rally a small construction unit in the frozen, haunted remains of Chicago.

	It got "a little out of hand" when they decided to make a comic out of their new dog. We've decended to sheer WTFery, now. I forgot what web-comic it was, but it was right--at this point, we just need Obama to passionately make out with his stem-cell clone for it to be complete. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh God, now I can't get that out of my head. Due to the internet being what it is, about ten seconds with Google will find you porn of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's utterly untrue. I've never found Wesley Crusher porn. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, that's kinda odd. I'm sure I saw something back on greyarchive a few years back where the main cast is left on some planet, and the women have to have sex or they'll die. ...You know, put like that, it doesn't sound too far off from a normal TNG episode. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have definitely, definitely read Picard/Wesley. Riker may have been there too. And no I was not looking for that! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't worry, the first fanfic I'd ever read was Gundam Wing, and it was Duo/Deathscythe. Man was I friggen confused. To clarify for some, that's the long haired pilot and his giant freakin' mecha. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	OH This is to do with Obama? Well i completely missed that! I thought it seemed quite interesting, if a bit melodramatic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But the cover isn't in the post! And I didn't recognise the title. :/ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, yes, it would have been, except that I had no reason to think "oh what if Obama is in this comic, I should google the title to check if he is on the cover"?

Also, it's not unheard of for comic artists to lean heavily on celebrity likenesses when drawing characters, so even if I had checked I might just have thought "they made the heroic african-american politician look like obama, how creative".

But LUCKILY, someone mentioned that is was indeed Mr Obama, and so the light was shown to me without any googling or supposition necessary. Lucky me!
