HOPE: The HERO Initiative

Journal Entry: Fri Jun 20, 2008, 6:48 PM
Ronin Studios is proud to announce, in partnership with The Hero Initiative, a new charitable HOPE anthology.

About The Hero Initiative
In late 2000, a consortium of comic publishers came up with the idea to create a financial safety net for comic creators, much in the same fashion that exists in almost any other trade from plumbing to pottery. By March of 2001, the federal government approved The Hero Initiative as a publicly supported not-for-profit corporation under section 501 (c) (3).

The Hero Initiative is the first-ever federally chartered not-for-profit corporation dedicated strictly to helping comic book creators in need. Hero creates a financial safety net for yesterdays' creators who may need emergency medical aid, financial support for essentials of life, and an avenue back into paying work. It's a chance for all of us to give back something to the people who have given us so much enjoyment.

About HOPE
The HOPE line of anthologies was created to help those in dire need. By bringing together established professionals and up and coming comic creators Ronin Studios is able help provide financial aid and awareness to many worthwhile causes.

Submissions are now open!

We need your help!

Eisner voting is now available here:

Write-in voting is available. If everyone writes-in HOPE NEW ORLEANS under Best Anthology and gets their friends to do the same, that could be a few hundred.

Will it make a difference? Who knows. But it's worth trying!

(Thanks Russell for the info!)
