Larissa Raven, daughter of the WWII hero Mark Raven, will be donating the collection of her father's souvenirs to the Paragon City Museum. The collection includes everything from original 5th Column handguns to the mask of the Prowler, an infamous villain from what many consider the golden age of heroes.

Mark Raven along with his sidekick Walking Tall were members of the 1st Hero Brigade, renowned for taking their battles to the front line during war times, against members of the 5th Column and other paranormal villains and entities that were sent forth into the battlefields by the Axis powers. Mark Raven was a decorated hero earning the highest commendations possible for service to his country, while fighting alongside groups like the Freedom Phalanx and Dawn Patrol.

Mr. Whitley had this to say in response to the donation from Ms. Raven, "This is such an immaculate collection of relics. While we are still cataloguing all the contents of Mark Raven's souvenirs, there are many valuable treasures of both a historical and mundane significance. This is truly quite a remarkable find, and a reflection of a time now since past. It is my greatest hope that our exhibit honors the memory of those heroes who fought to preserve the freedoms of our great nation, that their deeds may not be forgotten."

The WWII exhibit opens October 12th in the Paragon City Museum and will feature all the contents of the Mark Raven collection, along with other paraphernalia and memorabilia that will pay homage and respect to the heroes of the Second World War.
