Hero Initiative

Here's a piece I did for the Hero Initiative this year. It's an organization designed to assist comics creators who need care- financial, health, etc.- that they would otherwise not receive. Their website can describe it best:

"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."

A bunch of Periscope folks did covers, including Ben Dewey. I learned that the nice thing about the Avengers is that their historical roster is so full, you can pretty much draw whatever Marvel character you want. I ended up digitally editing out Wolverine's cigar here for the print submission, since smoking's a Marvel taboo, but I'm sneaking this original up. His lungs have that healing factor thing anyway, right?

And that's as much as I know about that!
