Comics By Request: People, Places In Need Of Funding

By Tom Spurgeon

image* count Leela Corman among those cartoonists that have launched Patreons. Also, Melissa Mendes has launched one, here.

* Dan Vado updated his gofundme campaign a couple of days ago to remind us that it's still ongoing and any/all support is still appreciated.

* the stuff on Kickstarter that seems interesting all comes from semi-familiar names or better: Ted Sikora, Dave Sim, Shaenon Garrity, Steve Ditko/Robin Snyder. A pair of not-quite-yet-funded projects that caught my attention were this one about a forthcoming food crisis, and this one about fighting bullying.

* finally, it's been a while since we checked in on the ongoing gofundme in support of the writer and photographer Seth Kushner. It has hovered around the same amount since the last time he was in the news, with a benefit and a return home. I don't know exactly what his situation is right this minute, but I have to imagine that any funds in support of the family could be put to good use.
