50 new Archie covers by 50 great artists will benefit Hero Initiative
Los Angeles, CA (March 24, 2010): Archie and the whole Riverdale gang certainly
are heroes. Now they're joining forces to aid cartoonists in need.
Archie
Comics is teaming up with the Hero Initiative, the charity dedicated to helping
comic creators in medical or financial need, for an amazing artistic
extravaganza involving the premier issue of the world-renowned Archie wedding
series, Archie #600. Archie Comics has printed 50 blank-covered copies of the
landmark book, and Hero will have 50 stellar artists do original Archie covers
on the special edition books. The originals will be auctioned off at a later
date to benefit Hero, and a book will be published, collecting all 50 covers.
