   The Thor piece ('Out of the Mist' here on DA) i did for Vettix Hero's Wish art project is up for bid on ebay right now! Vettix is a nonprofit that raises money for Veterans and soldiers on leave to get free or subsidized tickets for entrainment events to go to with their families.
Its a good cause and im happy to have been asked to contribute!  The auction can be found at www.ebay.com/sch/vet-tix/m.htm…;

Jon Bogdanove, a living legend in the comic book industry, co-creator of Steel, and one of the architects of the Death of Superman from the 90's, has launched his first ever independent comic on kickstarter and he needs everyone's help to make this comic a reality!
Entitled 'Strongman', Jon's kickstarter tells the story of Bronislav 'Bron' Bellman, a depression-era strongman who doubles as a pulp hero. Bron travels the world with his companions in the Strange Bros. Circus, righting wrongs, and defending the downtrodden against all sorts of foes — from the criminal, to the supernatural. Tonally, Strongman draws on some of our favorite stories and characters for inspiration. It blends light-hearted action and globe-trotting adventure with vintage pulp crime drama, and gothic, mystical horror.
superhero, supernatural, criminal, this comic looks awesome!
Check out the official page here  www.kickstarter.com/projects/1…
only $45 gets you a completely original (signed!) graphic novel - and there are tons of other great incentives including being featured in the comic yourself! 
As with all kickstarters, if the project is not funded, then you are not charged, so theres no risk in donating, you're essentially just pre-ordering the book - but again, nothing happens unless the whole project is funded.

On a personal level, I know Jon Bogdanove and aside from being a great artist, he really is a great guy, and has helped me out professionally and personally countless times as i've embarked on my own comicbook career.  The high funding amount this kickstarter is asking for is reflective not only of the quality of the work which will be produced, but also of the fact that Jon will need to hire assistants, colourists, letterers etc... and is committed to paying everyone a real living wage - something we should all be in favour of as aspiring - or even successful - commercial artists!

Thanks for your support! Tell everyone you know! Only 6 days left to donate!
