MARVEL SUPERHEROES LOOK TO STOMP OUT BULLYING

The INCREDIBLE HULK will be stomping out bullying in a special comic book cover of HULK #7 meant to promote the topic of addressing bullying prevention in our schools and highlighting that October is National Bullying Prevention Month.  Marvel Entertainment at the urging of STOMP Out Bullying, a bullying and cyberbullying prevention organization for kids and teens in the U.S., is publishing several special comic book variant edition covers on some of its most popular selling youth titles to bring added awareness of the problems of bullying during the month of October. 

 "The center of Marvel's storytelling history is the eternal struggle between good and evil, with many of its greatest super heroes having to contend with – and rise above – bullying, in all its forms," said Axel Alonso, Editor in Chief of Marvel Comics. "We are proud to join forces with STOMP Out Bullying on its important bullying prevention awareness mission. We hope that all our fans take a moment this month to educate themselves on the need to stop bullying among our youth by checking out the free resources STOMP Out Bullying has to offer."

The following comic books will feature special STOMP Out Bullying variant covers:
  • ROCKET RACCOON #4
  • GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #20
  • AVENGERS#36
  • INHUMAN#7
  • HULK #7
  • CAPTAIN AMERICA #25
