Town Hall Debate for President: Iron Man vs Batman
Date: Saturday, July 26th
Time: 12 O’clock noon
Location: Fantom Comics Tenleytown
This Saturday Fantom Comics Tenleytown will host a town hall debate between Bruce “Batman” Wayne and Tony “Iron Man” Stark.
Several months ago Fantom Comics posed the question: which super-hero would make the best American president, were they to run in the 2008 presidential election? We offered our customers the choice of 16 candidates: 8 from Marvel Comics and 8 from DC Comics.
This May, on Free Comic Book Day, the customers spoke. Batman was nominated as DC’s candidate, and Iron Man as Marvel’s.
Since then the debate has been raging. Who would be the better president? This coming Saturday you’ll have a chance to ask the candidates the tough questions.
The debate will start at noon and run for one hour. As this is a town hall style debate, the questions will be asked by the audience, so be sure to bring some good ones along with you!
Snacks will be provided for all attendees!
Iron Man will be portrayed by professional stand-up comedian and uberdork Jimmy Meritt. Batman by professional comic book slinger and strong-jawed Jordan Kessler.
See you then!
