Pulpit Fiction 

Thought Lain might be interested in this:
"There's a wild one-shot coming out in August called Tales from the Bully Pulpit, that I'm really looking forward to," Image's B. Clay Moore told Newsarama. "It's pretty off the wall, to say the least. Basically, it's Teddy Roosevelt and the ghost of Thomas Edison with a time machine, defending the universe."
Creator and writer Benito Cereno described the book to Moore, who in turn shared this bit of info with Newsarama. "Tales from the Bully Pulpit is a hearkening back to a time in which your job could be "explorer," science didn't have to be about anything specific, and people were still excited at the concept of the unknown. It's about two such explorers, one an adventuring hero and policeman of the world, the other an inventor and innovator -- both of whom just happen to be people you've heard of: Theodore Roosevelt and Thomas Edison. Tales from the Bully Pulpit is an exploration of what would happen if two such daring and inquisitive men had the capability to explore everything. Literally everything. In a souped-up version of a stolen time machine, the two adventurers travel where their whims carry them; in this case, that happens to be the future, and traveling to the future takes them to Mars. Once there, Teddy and Edison discover that not all is well on the red planet, so they take it upon themselves to help. Amid strange creatures and even stranger foes, the two ultimately face the darker side of time travel."
