A Tribute to Mike Wieringo


I Had Totally Forgot About This...
Just Before Mike Wieringo Died, He Was Working On A Marvel What If... Book About The Fantastic Four. After He Passed, Marvel Donated The Seven Pages To The Hero Initiative And It Was Completed By Mike's Some Of Friends And Comic Book Brethren.
That List Includes: Jeff Parker, Arthur Adams, Paul Renaud, Stuart Immonen, Cully Hamner, Alan Davis, David Williams, Sanford Greene, Humberto Ramos, Skottie Young, Mike Allred, Barry Kitson, and Val Staples. The Cover Artwork Is By Mike With Paul Mounts. The Book Is Being Published By The Hero Initiavite With The Full Support Of Marvel And Mike's Family.
I'm Definitely Going To Check It Out. Mike Was An Amazing Talent In The Industry, A Phenomenal Artist And, From What Everyone Says, One Hell Of A Nice Guy. The Book Will Be Available For $4.99 On June 25th. I Would Suggest Everyone Check Out This Book Because Of The Talent That Went Into, But Even Looking Past All Of That, Its All Just For A Good Cause For A Great Artist.
