Heroes For Hope

    (Marvel, 1985)
Marvel

In this charitable tour de force, Marvel recruited top writers and artists from all over to bring us Heroes for Hope. All proceeds from this comic book were donated to famine relief efforts in Africa.

Featuring powerful stories (including one by Stephen King), this special places the Uncanny X-Men in a nightmare world of hunger and starvation. It’s a nation of ghosts—a hell wrought on earth. It’s going to take all their powers and more to save its wretched inhabitants.
