Harlem Heroes is a British comic strip that formed part of the original line-up of stories in 2000 AD (February 1977). Inspired by the popularity during the 1970s of kung fu films and the Harlem Globetrotters Harlem Heroes was devised by Pat Mills employing elements from his Hellball comic strip and scripted by Tom Tully. Initially the series was to have been drawn by Carlos Trigo but the Spanish artist was replaced by Dave Gibbons prior to the first issue’s publication.
