First Lady Michelle Obama is going to appear as a superhero in Bluewater’s new Female Force series.

The Female Force Michelle Obama comic book will be launched on April 25, 2009.  The comic created by Neil Bailey, Joshua LaBello, Vinnie Tartamella, has already presold 40,000 copies and is available at Amazon for $3.99.

Michelle will be the third in the Female Force series, after former First Lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. She will be followed by Caroline Kennedy and Princess Diana.

Bluewater President Darren Davis has been quoted as saying, “Strong, independent women is what we’re known for. So doing the ‘Female Force’ series was organic for us - we try to show women in a positive light and tone down the ‘T and A’ angles. They’re no different from a Wonder Woman type of comic.”

The Female Force Michelle Obama  comic book will chronicle the life and career of Michelle Obama and examine her role “a mother, political force, and now, wife of the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama.”

Davis has said, “I don’t think people know everything there is to know about Michelle. There’s a lot of information in her thesis, and she worked for the company that represented Barney the Dinosaur … [it's] not just about her arms.”

While the Female Force Michelle Obama comic book does profile Michelle as a mother, it does not depict her daughters Sasha and Malia. Bluewater has said that it will keep out Sasha and Malia out of the comic out of respect, particularly after the Ty Girlz dolls controversy.

Ty brought out dolls named Sweet Sasha and Marvellous Malia in the likeness of Barack and Michelle Obama’s daughters. Michelle Obama slammed the products saying it was inappropriate to use young private citizens for marketing purposes.

The Female Force Hillary Clinton and Female Force Sarah Palin comics have sold around 10,000 copies each.
