September means a lot of things: Labor Day, back to school, the start of football season. But this year it also means something else; it signals the beginning of “40 Days of Supergirl,” a Multiversity event that celebrates the Girl of Steel across all platforms. We will be featuring all sorts of amazing content from now until the debut episode of Supergirl season 2 on October 10th. Join in the fun on social media by using the #40DaysofSupergirl hashtag.
The centerpiece of the event is our fourth art month, after our amazing Abe Sapien, Hellboy, and Guardians of the Galaxy themed projects. We have amazing artists – both established and up and coming – who have contributed original pieces of art featuring Supergirl, many of which will be going up for auction, with the proceeds to benefit Room to Read, a wonderful literacy charity that helps people all over the world. Enjoy the month, bid on some art, and help make some lives even better the best way we can think of: through comics!

His work has appeared in every section of the New York Times and the cover of The New Yorker, two touchstones for any Tri-State area kid. His comic work has been published by McSweeneys, Fantagraphics, The Best American Comics, and more. He had a story in “Strange Tales II,” published by Marvel in 2010. His first full length book, My Brain is Hanging Upside Down is a truly extraordinary graphic memoir that mixes family history, a love of music, personal stories, and dream comics, one of Heartley’s specialties. He also just released three EPs of music via his Bandcamp page. Check out his website.
David’s piece will be up for auction later this fall – keep checking back on Multiversity for details!
