Hero Initiative to present Mike Wieringo ‘extravaganza ‘ in June

February 8th, 2008
Author JK Parkin

Jim McLauchlin posted a few updates on the Hero Initiative blog this morning, including some details on a Mike Wieringo tribute book they’re doing:

The kind folks at Marvel Comics have donated to Hero the script and eight penciled pages to the final book Mike Wieringo was working on when Mike passed away. Working hand-in-hand with Marvel, Hero has recruited a dozen all-star artists to each do a page or two and finish the book. The result will be a 48-page ’Ringo extravaganza hitting in June. MUCH more info to come. In the meantime, here’s a page from the book by Humberto Ramos.

Check out the blog to see the page, which looks nice … and is that Ghost Rider in a Fantastic Four outfit?

    Well, the project in question was a What If? issue revolving around the period when Spider-Man, Ghost Rider, Wolverine and the Hulk became “the new Fantastic Four”.

    I was going to say, Spidey looks to be in an FF uniform as well.

  3. Joe Lawler Says:

    Wasn’t there a Wolverine issue a few years back, written by Erik Larsen? I remember if having the new FF, in FF costumes.

  4. CloverCoyle Says:

    It was the Wolverine issue of the “Ages of Apocalypse” crossover, and Larsen’s penultimate issue.

    That page by Ramos looks beautiful. But I am still finding it hard to accept that ‘Ringo is here no more. As if it wasn’t real. Too bad it’s only too real.
