I think Ronald Reagan is the most frequently portrayed president in comics.

Here's a fun appearance by Mike Grell in JON SABLE FREELANCE issue 1, June 1983, where Reagan is similarly portrayed in the shadows, but barely left in the shadows and easily recognized, in a clever exchange of dialogue between Jon Sable and the President. Reagan hires Sable to investigate and stop an assassination attempt on Reagan's life.

This story appeared on the stands about a year after an ACTUAL attempt on Reagan's life. And the wounds were so severe that (hidden at the time from the public, but we know now) Reagan never fully recovered.
