Summary: A great book for an election year!
Review: Political speechwriter Ronald Lithgow is abducted by aliens and, upon his return, his body had taken on a cybernetic form that resembles concrete. Who knows why? Maybe aliens don't like speechwriters.

Regardless of his new form, Lithgow becomes a major celebrity and a modern-day sideshow freak. Sounds like a political speechwriter to me!

In "Concrete: Complete Short Stories 1986-89," character originator Paul Chadwick has gathered his popular stories of the "hard-as-a-rock" hero into one complete tale. "Concrete" first appeared as a part of the "Dark Horse Presents" anthology comic series, and garnered a legion of faithful fans over the years.

So, in this political year, what is more appropriate than a comic book about a political speechwriter? Maybe George and Al would like to get in touch with this guy!
