Marvel Studios Trademarks "Hero Acts" For Upcoming Charity Drive
Marvel has registered trademarks for "Marvel Studios: Hero Acts" for charitable services and charitable fundraising services.
While DC Comics/Warner Bros, under Diane Nelson has launched a number of in-house charitable drives, most prominently including fundraising for the Horn of Africa, Marvel Comics' public charitable face has been restricted to a line of variant covers linked to charities, for which Marvel pays a flat fee. More prominently, their CEO Isaac Perlmutter donated a million dollars to Donald Trump's veterans charity.
Hero Acts looks to be a specific in-house use of Marvel's characters and possibly actors, though the "Studios" aspect of the name probably means you won't expect X-Men, Deadpool of the Fantastic Four in that line-up.
