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

* a cartoonist of whom I'm completely unaware named Raúl Treviño wrote in with a link to a fundraising page for his latest comic, Tinkers Of The Wasteland. I'm completely unfamiliar with webcomics work emanating from Mexico, which is reason enough for me to run the link so I can look in on it when I have a few second. It makes sense you'd see work like this springing up all over the world, right?

image* the Kickstarter project on behalf of the latest book from veteran cartoonist Batton Lash has reached its halfway point. This allows me to run another picture of Batton Lash. One of the premiums apparently puts you on the jury in the trial depicted, which is the kind of thing I find adorable.

* the Toonseum is still accepting donations here. I'm not sure where they are on monies raised or needs met, although it's not like they'd spend extra money on solid gold shoes.

* another veteran cartoonist, Keith Knight, has pulled past the 10 percent point on his effort to fund his first graphic novel here.

* the Injury Comics #4 fundraiser looks to be about there.

* finally, it looks like the Little Heart project made its goal, but I imagine there's still room for more donations if you're interested. That's the marriage-equality comic out of the Minneapolis area.
