FDNY - Fire Commissioner Salvatore Cassano, Chief of Operations Robert Sweeney, Marvel Comics Editor Bill Rosemann, Hot Dog the FDNY Fire Safety Mascot, Captain America and Spider-Man met at Midtown Comics in Manhattan on April 5, 2011, to announce the release of a new Marvel comic book that's all about fire safety.

The book features FDNY firefighters and Marvel superheroes battling both fire and villains as a team. And as the story progresses, they all share valuable lessons about fire safety.

The 10-page comic also features a cliffhanger ending, which sends the reader to the FDNY Foundation website, www.fdnyfoundation.org, to see the story's resolution.

The books are free and available at FDNY Fire Safety Education events and the FDNY Fire Zone in Rockefeller Center, while supplies last.
