About the series
A single-issue Marvel benefit comic from 1985, Heroes for Hope Starring the X-Men brought together an all-star roster of creators—including Ann Nocenti, Bernie Wrightson, Chris Claremont, and John Romita Jr.—to raise funds for African famine relief. The story sends the X-Men on a surreal, dreamlike journey into the psyche of a starving child, using their powers to confront the horrors of hunger and despair. It stands as a powerful, heartfelt example of comics' capacity for social activism, uniting top talent for a cause far beyond the page.
