Before Steve Gerber passed away, The Hero Initiative was working with him on a project called FOOG, Too — a sequel of sorts to the Friends Of Ol’ Gerber campaign launched many years ago when he was fighting with Marvel for the rights to Howard the Duck.
Jim McLauchlin explains the concept on the Hero Initiative blog:
We were gonna create several Gerber-centric products under the FOOG, TOO! banner that would help fund Hero (and thereby, also help Steve out financially in his convalescence). The first outta the gate was scheduled to be this super-cool Frank Cho Howard-and-Beverly print seen here. Working with our pals at Marvel, we got some new Frank Cho/Jason Keith art, and got these suckers printed up. Frank and Steve were slated to sign ’em, and ¡voila! Instant fundraiser product.
The print will be available at the Orlando MegaCon March 7-9 and throughout the rest of the con season. They will also be available via the Hero Initiative online store at AtomicComics.com.

This really is my very first time i take a look at this website. I found countless helpful things in your own web site specifically this web page. From the a lot of responses on your articles, I guess I am not the only one experiencing all the fun right here!
