Hero Initiative will be raising money for creators in need this FCBD!

The Hero Initiative is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping comic book creators, writers and artists in need.

The Hero Initiative creates a financial safety net for comic creators who may need emergency medical aid, financial support for essentials of life, and an avenue back into paying work.

Since its inception, the Hero Initiative has been able to benefit more than 40 creators and their families with more than $400,000 worth of much-needed aid, fueled by the contributions of comic book fans.

Hero Initiative will be at our Free Comic Book Day Mini-Con on Saturday, May 3, 2014 to help raise funds for comic creators. It's a chance for all of us to give back something to the people who have given us so much enjoyment.
