CoronaVirus Comics THE VITALS: TRUE NURSE STORIES "Story One: Cut Through the Noise"

What Makes a Person a Hero or Heroine?

It's being willing to do what must be done...even when you're already at your limit, physically or mentally!

Real heroes don’t wear capes; they wear scrubs.

Marvel Comics collaborated with Allegheny Health Network (AHN) to celebrate real-life healthcare heroes through a comic book about real-life nurses and their heroism.

Each character and story stems from the experiences of real people who provide healthcare throughout AHN’s 13 hospital facilities in Western Pennsylvania, serving as amalgams of the dozens of nurses who shared their stories.

The limited-print run comic books are distributed to patients for free throughout AHN hospitals, with an e-reader version available on Marvel.com.

This lead-off tale is written by Sean Ryan, penciled by Marcio Fiorito, inked by Roberto Poggi.

You'll be seeing the others over the next few weeks.
