Shadowcat and Lockheed for Anti-Bullying!

My contribution to the Bully Awareness month!
It doesn't take much not to be a bully, but it takes courage and respect to be a hero! Bullying is never the answer and it doesn't make you cool, it makes you a mean and hurtful person. Something I think no one wants to be!
As being Mutants in an Anti-Mutant world, Shadowcat and Lockheed (though he's an alien) know first hand the problems with bullies and understand the importance of awareness!

Guardians of Anti-Bullying

Bullying is a serious issue that gets overlooked far too often. Everyone has faced bullying at some point in their life and witnessed someone else being bullied. That is when a choice must be made to either stand by or help take a stand against bullying. I am happy and proud to support Anti-bullying month with my fellow Scribble Nerds, Marvel and Carol & John's Comic Shop. To show characters overcoming their own demons with bullying, I chose a couple characters from Guardians of the Galaxy. Throughout the movie these characters bullied each other. It took awhile but by the end Drax realizes that he had been a bully to Rocket, just like Rocket realized he had bullied Groot. Bullying is something no one should have to deal with. It isn't always a black eye or something visible, sometimes it can be worse like the hurt you can't see. 

So like the Guardians who realized their wrong ways... 

BE A HERO, NOT A BULLY.

Spider Gwen wants you to be a hero.

Bullying strikes a very hot nerve for me. It makes me grit my teeth to this day. Bullying is never, NEVER, ok. No matter how insignificant it may seem, bullying can destroy people. I was lucky enough to survive the bullying I endured as a kid, but some people I knew were not so fortunate. Before I climb to high up on my soapbox, let me just remind you to think before you speak. If you can't say something nice, don't say it. If you can't do something nice, don't do it. Bullying has to stop.

Heroes like Spider Woman know this and do their part to help. Now it's your turn. If you see bullying, be a hero and do something to help stop it.

Pick this and 6 other stickers up at Carol and John's Comics.

Bullying Awareness-- Nightcrawler Edition!

Hi all, Mark here!

I'm a huge Nightcrawler fan, so for Bullying Awareness month, I drew Nightcrawler comforting a young boy.  Nightcrawler is arguably one of the compassionate X-Men, and despite his outcast status, he always treats others with kindness.  Growing up, I was a very awkward and very nerdy kid, so I know that bullying is a serious issue-- but it doesn't have to be.  Be a hero and do your part to prevent bullying!  A little kindness towards others goes a long way.

Stop by Carol & John's comic shop to get this sticker (and 6 additional stickers) to raise awareness for Bullying Awareness Month. 

Deadpool: Anti-hero/Anti-Bully

So, I love Deadpool.

A LOT of people love Deadpool for a MULTITUDE of reasons. But the reason I love Deadpool, the reason I think despite his antihero status he represents this sticker just as well as any Avenger, is that at the heart of him is a guy that wants to see the good guys win. A guy with incredibly low self esteem and a lot of hidden vulnerability due to his abusive childhood and living with a disfiguring illness whose favorite hero is Spiderman. Who fanboys out at the chance to team up with the X-Men. Whose one true love is Bea friggin' Arthur.
He's got layers, and ones I think readers of all ages and especially bullied kids can identify with.

Also he breaks the fourth wall and that's, like, hella cool.

HELLA

oh look at that, more HELLA RAD stuff at my blog!

Be a Hero, Not a Bully She-Hulk Sticker by Henry Pope III

Be a Hero, Not a Bully!

Jennifer "She-Hulk" Walters knows a thing or two about getting bullied and how to fight back! Either in the courtroom or on the streets she's more then capable of hitting her opponent with a powerful OBJECTION!!! 

My little contribution to this social effort! Thanks you John Dudas of Carol and John's Comic Shop and the rest of the Scribble Nerd team for putting this together!
