I am very lucky to be able to write about such an amazing group of people today. This group was formed about a year ago, yea they are pretty new but within that short period of time they have done so much for the WNY area. From raising money for many different types of charities around the area, raising awareness for many different causes or from just taking time out of their days to dress up as superheros to visit sick children at Roswell park.

Before I get to into how amazing these guys are let me give you a quick little history of the group. The group formed about a year ago after a few of them met up at a local event at a Barnes and Noble, when a few of them saw the children reacted to them as their favorites heroes and that is when the group was created. Their first big event together was "Superheroes Save Skate land", in which the group got together and helped raised money for SkateLand in Lockport, NY to keep their doors open. The event was a huge success and this small group of cosplayers had made a huge difference by helping this place out. After this success the group started to plan out and organize themselves.

The Superhero Alliance of WNY became a non for profit organization, who works closely with Queen City Book store, Queen City has helped the group by giving them comics for the children of Roswell Park and also having the group greet and take photos at conventions that they have run. The members have also been in many forms of media promoting events such as The Superhero race, or most recently in the buffalo news promoting themselves from Nickel City Con.

What is really super about this group is that you dont have to dress up as a hero to help out with the group, they have non costume members who hold a big job as well. The non costume members help out by making sure everyone is safe, keeping lines in order when they are at events as well.

The Alliance is always looking for new members and I am happy to say I am one of them. This group is amazing and just shows that you can dress up and be a hero.
