MONTREAL, Sept 1, (AFP): He snowboards, he hikes, he surfs — Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is already a bit of an action hero.
But now, Marvel has made him into a real superhero, in a comic book that hit news-stands Wednesday.
Trudeau graces one of two covers of the latest edition of “Civil War II: Choosing Sides” — seated in the corner of a boxing ring, smiling, his elbows resting on the ropes, with the maple leaf symbol emblazoned on his tank top and wearing red boxing gloves.
The 44-year-old prime minister is surrounded by Canadian superheroes Puck, Sasquatch and Aurora — members of the Alpha Flight squad — as Iron Man looms in the background.
The main cover in circulation does not feature Trudeau.
The comic book also introduces a mysterious new character, Ulysses, who has the power to predict the future.
Trudeau is consulted in his Ottawa office by the members of Alpha Flight after a disagreement breaks out over how to leverage Ulysses’s powers.
