    Amazing Spider-man #583 Release

    Amazing Spider-man #583 featuring a back-up story starring then President-Elect Barack Obama was one of the most anticipated and historic comic releases in history. Here at Acme we had three trained media professionals covering the story, but luckily we had our own eyes and ears open before the doors opened, during the mad rush, and after the book sold out.
