Spider-Man has built a sizable fan following since his beginnings, but did you know that one of their followers is none other than Barack Obama? The former president made his affection for Spider-Man known at a number of child-centered events he attended, and he ranked Spider-Man with Batman as his favourite hero. Marvel had Spider-Man meet Obama in a special edition comic issued just before his inauguration as a thank you for his love of the character.
