The Real Heroes #2

In "Call of the Wild," Marvel’s The Real Heroes #2 (1994) brings a striking, eco-conscious twist to the superhero genre as our heroes are abruptly summoned from responding to global ecological crises to confront the wrath of the Gods of the North. Written by Chris Cooper and illustrated by Bob Gordon, with inks by Ernie Chan, colors by Joe Caponsacco, and lettering by Jim Novak and Steve Dutro, the issue blends urgent environmental themes with mythic stakes. The cover by Tom Morgan captures the storm-laden intensity of the moment, making this free 1994 release a compelling, if brief, dive into a world where nature itself demands accountability.
