The Real Heroes

From 1994, Marvel’s The Real Heroes ran for four issues, a short-lived series exploring the gritty, human side of superhuman life. The creative team, including writers Chris Cooper, Evan Skolnick, and Joey Cavalieri alongside artists Bob Gordon, Mike Gustovich, and Pete Garcia, crafted a grounded take on everyday people thrust into extraordinary circumstances. While brief, it stands as a notable experiment in Marvel’s mid-’90s output, offering a down-to-earth counterpoint to the era’s bombastic superheroics.
