Helping comic industry veterans in need, giving back to our comic roots, monkeys, and pie.





Superstars JEPH LOEB and ED MCGUINNESS will change the way you see THE HULK! In this startling origin epic, the breathtaking events that ended World War Hulk rocket into this brand-new Hulk title. When one of The Hulk's oldest cast members is murdered, everyone turns to the team of IRON MAN, SHE-HULK and LEONARD SAMSON to solve the grizzly case. All the evidence points to the Hulk as the killer! Join us for a brand--new story and a brand-new team who loves the Hulk as much as you do! This variant cover by Ed McGuinness is exclusively available through the Hero Initiative at Atomic Comics.

About me:







The Hero Initiative, formerly ACTOR (A Commitment To Our Roots), is the first-ever federally chartered not-for-profit corporation dedicated strictly to helping comic book creators in need.

The Hero Initiative creates a financial safety net for yesterday’s creators who may need emergency medical aid, financial support for essentials of life, and entrée back into paying work.

The Hero Initiative exists because many Golden Age or Silver Age creators toiled in comics’ earlier days for low pay and with a nonexistent pension plan. Very often, writers would work for a penny a word, or artists for $5 a page with no chance of ownership and no pension. Today, many of these people who laid the groundwork that today’s comic industry works on may be in financial need. Be it due to age, health, or just low salaries with no retirement plan, they may need a hand. The Hero Initiative provides a safety net for former comic creators in need. The Hero Initiative is dedicated to helping creators with emergency medical aid, financial support for essentials of life, and entrée back into paying work.

It's simply amazing that we've been doing these videos for a year now. Over the past year we've completed two volumes of videos. Sit back and enjoy my favorite ten moments from the past year.



Keep en eye open for the start of Vol. 3. We have a ton of videos from the Big Apple Con in NY, a new series called Variant Edition, and favorites like SUPERSTARS.

I thought that you might
enjoy this Martial Art music expression. “Street
Fighter
” is spectacular music video made with stunning martial art moves
that will take your breath away! This high flying digital expression represents
over filthy different martial art movies, with a soft metal twist. So if you
appreciate the Martial Arts and you like Tygers of Pan Tang, then you will love
music video. I dedicated this to my all my fans, and inspired by my sister, who
taught me the tricks and tips of “movie maker,” in windows.  I hope you watch it in its entirety, because
there’s always a surprisingly last clip at the end of the credits, I know that
you will love.  I hope I made it worth
your while to watch! Don’t forget to rate me, and I do sincerely hope you enjoy
the “Martial Art Rock” martial art music video!

I thought that you might
enjoy this music expression.  “Martial Art Rock” is spectacular music
video made with stunning martial art moves that will take your breath away!
This high flying digital expression represents fifty-three different martial
art movies, and a wonderful song by Stryper. So if you appreciate the Martial
Arts and you like Stryper, then you will love music video. I dedicated this to
my brother, who is very close to me, and inspired by my sister, who taught me
the tricks and tips of “movie maker,” in windows.  I hope you watch it in its entirety, because
there’s surprisingly last clip at the end of the credits, I know that you will
love.  Though it’s a bit long, I hope I
made it worth your while to watch! Don’t forget to rate me, and I do sincerely
hope you enjoy the “Martial Art Rock” martial art music video! Don’t’ forget to
rate it and be sure to leave a comment message and let me know what you think
and feel free to put any of my videos on your profile too, just let me know, because I like
to see stuff like that, it would also create an additional reason to see your

is spectacular music video made with stunning martial art moves that will take

50 different martial art movie clips, and a wonderful song by Snap. So if you
appreciate the Martial Arts and you like Snap, then you will love music video.

Check out the new episode of Cee Diddy & Kyle: SUPERSTARS. This week the boys try to find fame by starting a fight with those who are already famous. It sounds like a good idea to me.

Hey, I really like what you
have done with your MySpace, it’s well arranged and artistically put together.
Naturally, I love the Batman/Spider-Man World motif of course; but I can
appreciate all hero/villains and sci-fi motifs. I’m always looking for ways to
improve my site and add a wide variety of things to it. I’ve been learning more
about MySpace and I’ve been very intentional in my profile everything is
thoughtfully placed on my page as I can tell you have too. I know it take a
second to load but I try to provide an overall experience. I try to do a little
bit of everything, photo, animation gif files, videos, games, blogs graphics
etc. I appreciate you adding me to your site, I feel honored. Now that we are
friends, I wanted to invite you to read some of my blogs and read through what
I have to say about superheroes and Batman on my main page; leave a comment or
two. You might find them insightful. Finally, if you see anything on my site
feel free to copy it and use put it on you’re as well. You might want to check
out my photo gallery also. Please refer my site to everyone else too. Thanks
for the add my friend!

I thought that
you might enjoy this music expression. This is music video is a compilation of
over 40 martial art movies and 3 renditions to the song, “Kung Fu Fighting;”
(Original, Techno and Disco). I know you will enjoy this 13 minute video
expression, especially if you like the martial arts. Be sure to watch to it end
of the credits because there’s a surprise waiting for you! Don’t’ forget to
rate it and be sure to leave a comment message and let me know what you think!

I thought that you might
enjoy this music expression.  This is a
video I made with my sister, AKA call sign “SparrowDove”, who has led me down
the path of addiction that is making fan-made music videos. I was visiting her
and we embarked on this exciting "joint venture": a Martial Arts
Music Video. We both love Martial arts movies and thought this would be fun. So
if you like martial arts and DragonForce you are going to love this joint
compilation.
