Another side of State Duma Speaker Boris Gryzlov was presented to the Russian society in June, when he was depicted as a superhero in a comics titled, ‘Gryzlov the Man,’ who oversees vital state affairs during the days, and after closing the State Duma sessions, goes out doing ‘Batman-like heroics,’ saving cities from harm. For instance, in the first ‘series’ making the rounds on the Internet, superman Gryzlov is saving Moscow from a monstrous man, who, acting on orders from an ‘Evil Oligarch,’ damages a gas pipeline in the city.
According to the creator of the comics, ahead for the superhero are numerous advantages, including uncompromising fights with the ‘Evil Oligarch.’ Commenting on the news, ‘political Batman’ said he was both surprised by the film’s content and format. “It was absolutely a surprise for me to star in a film of this genre.”
