Spawn comic to have alternate endings depending on who wins the election

A rare bit of politics in comics to report. Todd McFarlane's Spawn #225, to be released on November 6th, 2012, will feature two alternate covers, one that says “Romney Wins” and another that says “Obama Wins” and have two alternate endings.
According to Image Comics, the results of the 2012 Presidential Election will have direct impact on the events of future Spawn comics. Spawn #225's description reads "On November 6th, the citizens of the United States of America will select their Commander In Chief. The winner, and his goals and agendas, will play a role in shaping the next stage in Jim Downing’s evolution. This issue contains two alternate endings – one featuring Barack Obama, the other Mitt Romney. Both are available to order using the unique product codes listed in the order form.” For those that only know Spawn from the TV show or movie and might be a bit confused, Jim Downing replaced Al Simmons, the original Spawn, in the title role.
