Lost action heroes

Article Abstract:

Comic book publishers are making an attempt to play on the real-life heroes of 9-11, rather than boosting imaginary superheroes. Marvel Comics has published 'Heroes', with proceeds earmarked for the Twin Towers Fund, and Alternative Comics plans a '9-11: Emergency Relief' issue, with proceeds earmarked for the American Red Cross. The promotional material for the upcoming Spider-Man movie, which shows the title character spinning a web between the World Trade Center towers, was immediately pulled out of theaters, and much of the movie will be refilmed.

Comic relief

Article Abstract:

The sale of comics especially those featuring a superhero have increased, which can be attributed to the terrorist attacks in the United States and the Iraq war. Military comics are in the process of entering the markets again and other types of comics are also gaining popularity as they change according to the latest situation in the world.
