4	''[[http:///www.theduckwebcomics.com/Heroes_Unite/ Heroes Unite]]'' is a SuperHero webcomic hosted on Platform/TheDuck. It is possibly the first webcomic done in a similar style to [[ComicBook/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica JLA]] or [[Comicbook/TheAvengers Avengers]]. Most of its members are superheroes from other webcomics hosted at Drunk Duck, OriginalGeneration created for it or earlier, that didn't previously appear anywhere else. It won the Drunk Duck Award for the best cooperative work in 2009 and spawned three spin-offs:
5	* ''[[http:///www.theduckwebcomics.com/HU_Adventures Heroes Unite Adventures]]'': A series of short (4-page) tales starring the heroes of the Heroes Unite Initiative and related characters.
6	* ''[[http:///www.theduckwebcomics.com/Heroes_Alliance Heroes Alliance]]'': A series following Bombshell's spinoff team Heroes Alliance.
7	* ''[[http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/The_New_Guard/ The New Guard]]'': Follows a new and separate team led by Tazer after the events of Energize: Hunted. This is a reboot of the aborted 'The Heroes Unite' storyline that was originally published in Heroes Unite.
