Oop, sorry for the delay - quite a bit of overseas travel and further cataloging of the comic collection (stuck in early '90s superhero hell right now!) has meant some slowness in finding good new artifacts.
But here's one - First Amendment Publishing's two separate covers to He Said/She Said Comics Presents 'The Bill Clinton Story', from 1993 or so. This one's a bit of a doozy - there's a color centerfold picture of Hillary Clinton with a large battleaxe in a bikini standing in front of the White House, captioned 'Hilla The Hun'. In fact, it looks like this He Said/She Said thing was a bit of a running gag for the company - there's at least 6 issues done in that format, including a Woody Allen/Mia Farrow one which I sadly don't have.
So the 'He Said/She Said' comic series has two front covers to detail the dual views to the story, and does actually list a bunch of reasons why Flowers might not be telling the truth. But for all its obvious attempts to be a bit tawdry in telling the story of the alleged affair (this is all far before Monica Lewinsky, don't forget!), it's most interested in nailing Clinton on his policy failings.
In fact, the last page of the Gennifer Flowers side lists quotes from Clinton about tax relief, the Haitians, and homosexuals in the military, and has Flowers saying: "He said all the right things. But a man who will cheat on his wife... will lie to the American public." Strong stuff - but evidently not resonant enough, because I don't think First Amendment Publishing was around for a lot longer after this.
One of the boxes of comics I picked up recently had a whole collection of Marvel Age comics, which was Marvel's in-house promo comic in the '80s and early '90s, essentially - listing off upcoming series, interviews with creators, etc.
There's plenty of hilarity in the mag in general (like Stan Lee hyping about Spider-Man the movie, about 10 years before it actually happened!), but here's something neat - a mini-preview in 1991-ish for Epic's Sam & Max comic, which talks to the saintly Steve Purcell:
Looks like the comic reprinted on the page is actually from the Lucasfilm Games newsletter, since it stars the duo inside X-Wing Fighters and the like - lots of good quotes in there, sorry the scan is a little tricky to read in places - this is both for fair use and not-hi-res-enough-scanning reasons.
And you'll notice Purcell's good taste for co-creators, even back when Mike Mignola and Arthur Adams weren't quite so well known as they are now. Looks like at least one or two issues of the Epic comic came out, according to a handy Wikipedia entry - were there any more than that?
