John Kricfalusi (AKA John K.), the mad genius who created Ren and Stimpy, has unleashed a new line of political toys just in time for the most childish, name-calling, playground-level election since... well, the last one.

John K. will be introducing the toys, modeled after Hilary Clinton, John McCain and Barack Obama (AKA the worst threesome ever), at Meltdown Comics on Sunset on Saturday, Nov. 1, at 2:00 p.m. He'll also be signing autographs and doing sketches.

Meltdown did an interview with John K., where he shared his view of the election:

Have you enjoyed this particular election cycle more than others that have occurred in your lifetime or has it been all too much?

I am not all that political myself. I watch all the news and debates and am amazed at what all the candidates get away with. I’m Canadian, so the extremes of Republican and Democrat hatred amaze me. I find them both equally bizarre and arbitrary. And funny.

See? It's entirely possible we'll all look back at this someday and laugh. Or move to Canada. Whichever.
