In 1964, Dell Comics published President John F. Kennedy’s life story in a comic book.  Just like he was a superhero.

The 36-page comic includes stories about his childhood, military service and political career.  It had a publication date of August-October 1964.  There is no credit to the author or artist. I did find an artist signature on the first page of the story: “Tartaglione & Giordano.”  According to Heritage Auctions:

John Tartaglione and Dick Giordano John F. Kennedy #1 Story Page t (Dell Publ., 1964-66). This memorial biography had a run of three issues, issued annually as #1-3 — but each issue is identical.  Although the comic was signed as “Tartaglione & Giordano” on the art for Page 2, it is possible that Giordano supplied the pencils for Tartaglione’s inks, or that they may have switch back and forth on various pages.

It was a graphic novel and an interesting storytelling device.
