Artists from all over the region had their chance to create a hunger action hero to represent Feeding San Diego’s mission to end hunger through food rescue. Since their creation, the characters have been brought to life by a Hollywood costume designer, appeared on a panel at Comic-Con, and been featured on news segments. The launch celebration was attended by Natalie Underdown, Courtney Gant, Cherie Froker, Michelle Rickwa, Kate Rickwa, Alison Glader, Josie Miguel, Sirenna Ascencio, and Emma Collins. The event also marked the debut of the characters’ very own comic book, aimed at young readers who want to learn more about hunger relief and food rescue.
