Created by Richard Comely and Ron Leishman in 1975, Captain Canuck became the first successful Canadian-published comic book since World War II, inspiring young Canadians to help others and their communities thrive. 

Like Captain Canuck, the United Way believes that despite our individual differences, when we unite to help others, we are unstoppable community superheroes!  

United Way Waterloo Region Communities is honoured to partner with Lev Gleason Publications Inc. and ComicHouse to produce this limited-edition Captain Canuck shirt for charity! All profits go directly to local charities working to help people in need. 

The origin story

Our shirt’s design is a blast from the past, taking inspiration from the ‘Captain Canuck Club’ logo that inspired a young generation of Canadian heroes in the late-1970s and early 1980s!

You’re not just supporting local charities by wearing this t-shirt – you’re celebrating Canadian pop-culture history!
