Barack Obama Looking At Awesome Things: A treat from Bearsharktopus-Man

The series of photos “Barack Obama Looking At Awesome Things” always gives me a chuckle.
The set of Photoshopped images has the president inspecting such geeky items as Master Chief’s helmet from the “Halo” video games and Superman’s Fortress of Solitude. The fictional items are presented as if they were real (and likely top secret) and Obama is now getting to see them because he’s president of the United States.
Funny stuff.
They’re the work of comics artist Dean Trippe and can be found on his website Bearsharktopus-Man and his Flickr page. Trippe is a terrific artist, specializing in superheroes, and has a great sense of humor. Check out his work on his blog.
