Believe it or not there is another Sarah Palin book available. This one might actually be the best of the three.


Okay so Bluewater Comics has decided to portray four famous political women in comic book form. They chose Hillary Clinton, Michele Obama, Carolin Kennedy, and our own Sarah Palin for the "honor".

I have not heard too much about this book so far, and have NO plans to purchase it, but I imagine that it will do at LEAST as good of a job at portraying Sarah Palin's life as that opus "Sarah Palin: An Intimate Biography of Sarah Palin" managed to do. (And yes I know I promised to post about Chapter Thirteen and the baby Trig scandal, but I have been busy, and it kind of takes awhile. It's coming.)

Here is what Kyle Hopkins of the ADN had to say about the comic:

It seeks to be a pretty by-the-numbers biography of Palin, except for weird errors like this one: "She beat incumbent Governor Tony Knowles by 10 percent."

And except the author constantly inserts himself into the book, questioning how his portrayal of Palin will received: Fair, unfair? In these portions, he argues with a kind of Jiminy Cricket character who appears to represent conservative readers. Seriously.

Another blog actually takes this thing seriously.

Hmm this is interesting. Apparently this is not Sarah Palin's first appearance on the comic book page.

Okay well that is enough of my time spent on this silly Sarah Palin detour. Later this weekend I will be posting large portions of the Trailblazer book and pointing out the inconsistencies and revelations therein. Stay tuned.
