According to an interview in yesterday’s New York Times, Rachel Maddow, the host of MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show, turns out to be a comic-book fan.

In the interview, she talks about her worst job, her favorite Republican, her superstitions, and more.

But here’s the only response that really matters:

By her bed: Comic books. I read comics sometimes and graphic novels. I appreciate that genre.

Nice to know, though I would have appreciated some specifics, especially since we’re told that her favorite professional memento is clown shoes and her favorite political memento is a Watergate ashtray.

Can anyone out there make out the titles or recognize the spines of any of the books in the photo at right? If you click through to the original article via the above link, you’ll then be able to see a larger image which might give away more information.

Out with it, Rachel! What comic books or graphic novels do you read?
