Comics By Request: People, Places In Need Of Funding

By Tom Spurgeon

* the saga of writer James Hudnall, who raised a few thousand dollars to get over the gap caused by hospitalization an amputation, takes a distressing turn as he now needs a new home. If you can give, please consider it, even if it's just a few dollars. That sounds awful, and a lot of comics people are in similarly risky positions in terms of what a change in their health could portend.

* my crappy grammar from a couple of weeks ago might have made it look like the cartoonist Melissa Mendes was somehow done seeking support on Patreon. She's not withdrawing anything, of course. I'm guessing she'd very much like as much support as possible. Please consider doing so.

* the author of this volume being collected wrote in to ask if there might be a line-item link in it for them. Who am I to refuse? One thing they mentioned is that this is a company that frequently does crowd-funders to publish, which is interesting in that I'm not sure I knew someone was doing that regularly.

* finally, Chris arrant takes a long look at Dan Vado's various crowd-funding efforts and the difficulty he's had in meeting various set goals.
