Sarah Palin

A satirical comic-book caricature of the real-world politician, this fictionalized Sarah Palin appears in the superhero universe of Guarding the Globe, crossing over into titles like Archie and Mad as a recurring satirical cameo figure.

A satirical presence born in the Modern Age, this comics version of Sarah Palin made her four-color debut in Guarding the Globe #1 (2010), brought to life by Robert Kirkman, Benito Cereno, and Ransom Getty before turning up across a delightfully eclectic mix of titles — from the superhero action of Guarding the Globe to the classic teen world of Archie and the irreverent pages of Mad. With only 8 catalog appearances, she's a rare and curious find, the kind of cameo that makes long-box diving genuinely surprising. Sharing pages with icons like Archie Andrews, Veronica Lodge, and the whole Riverdale crew, her brief comics footprint is a snapshot of how pop culture figures get refracted through the funhouse mirror of the medium — worth tracking down for the sheer novelty alone.
