Comics’ Giving Heart—People, Projects In Need Of Funding

image* I'd really love it if more people considered the Projects Kickstarter, but folks are probably tired of hearing from me on that end and I'm not sure it's doing much good. I actually sent them some money as if I were attending because I think if it comes off I'll see the fruits of its non-commercial show model getting a test run. I hope that others will consider that, or consider what they have to offer more generally.

* Joel Meadows' Tripwire fundraiser looks like it could use some attention.

* someone wrote in to ask me to run a link to this Deadlands: Raven Kickstarter.

* I don't think I've linked to Jamal Igle's Molly Danger Kickstarter effort yet; if I have, it's been a while.

* this fundraiser for a Mike Deodato Jr. art book has met its goal but is still there for a few more hours if you want in on some of those sweet, sweet incentives.

* don't forget you can donate to the charity of Joe Kubert's choice in memory of that great comics illustrator and foundational comics educator.

* a bunch of CBLDF-related auctions end later this morning.

* finally, Rob Kirby sent along this link to an article about Kickstarter's massive growth, which includes the Order Of The Stick fundraiser as one of the primary object-lessons.
