Buy Something Why Don'cha?

If you're interested, the eBay benefit auctions are running now!

My two pieces are listed here and here. I submitted two of my dot paintings, one of The Tick and the other is a Superman logo. I hope that someone will take them home -- all the money goes to a good cause!



Ryan has also donated some of his original comic art from The Darkness, if you know any comic art collectors. These are pencilled by Michael Broussard and inked by Ryan and are highly collectible and available at a good price! Issue 2, page 11. Issue 4, page 14. Issue 5, page 5.

Benefit Auction Starts May 23

Just a friendly reminder to anyone who may be interested in browsing the gallery of some of the items that will be available for the Josh Medors benefit auction, starting this Saturday! If you know any collectors of original comic book art, be sure to let 'em know about this... there are several one-of-a-kind pieces and commissions from well-known artists that are very valuable, but hard to find.

Plus: I am working on several pieces to be listed in my etsy shop that are part of my charitable contribution. So feel free to buy/commission something from there too!

Last year, I had the great misfortune of telling you that one of our friends, Josh Medors, was afflicted with cancer and needed your help. The fine folks at the Hero Initiative pulled out all the stops and were able to host a fantastic fundraiser that helped Josh and his family cope with the ever-mounting medical bills.

And now it is with an even heavier heart that I ask for your help again. Josh's cancer has progressed to an untreatable level. He has, however, found some 'alternative' (meaning not western medicine) treatments that may help extend his life and will surely improve the quality of it. Like everything else in America, this treatment comes at a steep price and once again all of us comic book geeks are banding together to help a brother out.

Dave Kopecki and Andrew Mangum are hosting an eBay benefit auction starting on May 23rd, which I will be donating to (Ryan will as well), so tell your friends! There's a preview of a few items that will be sold here. And if you're not an art collector, maybe you'd just like to send a few dollars -- remember, every $1 helps! -- or use your birthday candle wish or pitch a penny in a wishing fountain. We need all the good energy we can get!

Send donations (of any size!) via PayPal to: jmedors3@columbus.rr.com

I will also be making an ongoing series of arts and crafts and I will donate 100% of the proceeds to Josh and his family. Stay tuned!
