Steve Dillon Hero Initiative Benefit a Huge Success

Tonight's Steve Dillon signing and raffle in benefit of the Hero Initiative was a huge success, raising nearly $1,000! Steve generously donated nearly four hours of his time and signed books and drew sketches for dozens and dozens of fans with all proceeds going to the Initiative. The original art was won by three very lucky, very happy people, one of whom is yours truly (I promise no shenanigans - Steve did the drawing himself).

We plan on having photos and videos up shortly, including some exclusive breaking comic news! Stay tuned!

On Wednesday, June 24, Jim Hanley's Universe in Manhattan proudly presents the legendary artist and the co-creator of Preacher, Steve Dillon! This signing benefits the great folks at the Hero Initiative, the only charity for helping comic creators in need. More details are to come, so stay tuned!

And coming soon... Joe Simon! As Russel likes to say, this is For Realies!

We've uploaded a ton of cool photos over the last week or so...

Check out these photos of Craig Yoe at the JHU Underground from April 3 and these photos from the jam-packed, red-hot Alara Reborn release tournament from May 1. And of course you can see all of our Geoff Johns coverage from the last several weeks here!
