Cash for clunkers… for comics

That Batmobile of yours on its last gasp? Is your Spider-Mobile on the way to the trash heap?

Well, if you’re looking to get that eyesore off your lawn — and help some creators in need — the Hero Initiative has news for you. For anyone who wants to donate their clunker car to Cars 4 Causes, you can stipulate that your donation will go straight to the Hero Initiative.

Donating to Cars 4 Causes is tax-deductible, and in this case, will help the Hero Initiative assist creators in financial and medical need. Click here or here for more information.

    Couldn’t we put together some sort of similar program for HERO Initiative for older comics? I have several boxes of comics that I am happy to release into the wild. A couple of years ago I tried the cliche route of donating to a children’s hospital… but every one I contacted refused.

    With the scope of the Internet and sites like Newsarama, CBR, the Source etc. (now that I’ve mentioned competitor sites, of course) - couldn’t we work with HERO to figure out a way for me to just give up my boxes and whoever wants them or the issues within to just make a donation to HERO?

    Am I over-thinking this?
