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

image* stellar, concise write-up here about efforts to help the writer and Lobo co-creator Roger Slifer. Please consider joining me in making a donation.

* not surprised that an Amy Reeder project was pretty quickly funded (although I'm sure they'd still love your support). I'm somewhat surprised that Micah Wright's project here hasn't met its goals yet, although I think that one's within funding distance and should make it, at least according to how these things tend to play out. (That doesn't mean they can't use your support right now, though.) Reasonably surprised that a P. Craig Russell-related project hasn't reached its goal yet; I'm not intimately familiar with the project in a way I can make an appraisal that way, but I wonder if there's some generational disconnect there, likely audience to funding mechanism.

* the Trickster fundraising effort is headed into its last few days, what with the space opening this week. I've written this before, but those strike me as useful premiums if you've already spent however many grand to go to California in an attempt to get into making comics.

* I asked via twitter for suggestions of projects to consider that might get lost San Diego Con week. Here's one called The Cabinet.

* finally, a project related to the great Don Rosa might have met its goal by the time this post rolls out. If not, it's close.
