Wish Bear

Wish Bear is one of the Care Bears, a pastel-colored bear whose symbol is a shooting star, representing the power of wishes and hope. She appeared in Marvel's Star Comics line, the publisher's imprint aimed at younger readers.

Wish Bear made their Marvel Comics debut in 1986, stepping into the warm, colorful world of Star Comics — Marvel's beloved imprint aimed at younger readers — right in the heart of the Copper Age. Sharing pages with beloved companions like Grumpy Bear, Funshine Bear, and Tenderheart Bear across Care Bears, Star Comics Magazine, and Marvel Comics Presents Care Bears, Wish Bear is a charming piece of a genuinely joyful corner of comics history. It's a compact but sweet catalog presence, and for collectors with a soft spot for the era when Marvel embraced all-ages storytelling with real heart, tracking down these issues is a delightful little quest.
