                        Happy New Year 2012 from Bronx Heroes! 
                        Another exciting year awaits us as we get ready to launch Bronx Heroes 2.0 #1 at the Bronx Heroes Comic Con 4 @ the Bronx Museum May 11th and 12th 2012.  The best part of it is that you can now have a part in it!  We are looking for a vote on the color of the costume for our new costumed character, "Black Power".  Originally we were going to have him in Orange, Blue and Red, but fans at New York Comic Con thought that he looked like a Black version of Wolverine.  That's not what I'm going for at all.  So I leave it to you the fans to decide the color for our new launch character by voting for your favorite color.  It's simple all you do is click onto our voting poll and choose the  color that appeals to you the most.  The most votes win.  The pay off is that you have a part in making "Black Power" one of the most appealing characters in comics for the 21st Century.  Thanks for your vote and don't forget to attend our 100% free comic convention on May 11th and 12th, 2012.
