Roger Langridge Gonzo Davros art for Comix4Sight auction at Chicago Comicon
Yes, it's Doctor Who meets The Muppet Show!
At the 2009 Chicago Comicon, Comix4Sight has joined forced with Wizard Entertainment to hold a charity auction the evening of Saturday, August 8th. The goal is to raise sufficient funds to help cover the costs of John Ostrander’s treatments in his battle against glaucoma, and it is John’s expressed wish that should we raise funds above his needs, that excess money is to be donated to The Hero Initiative to help them continue their great works aiding comic creators in their times of need.
Artwork is coming in for the auction, and we'll be showing you stuff prior to the auction. We already showed you this Batman/Hawkman piece by Andy and Joe Kubert, now we have Gonzo becoming half Dalek, brought to you by Roger Langridge, writer/artist of The Muppet Show comics from BOOM! Studios. Roger did a bunch of other pieces for the auction as well, and we can't thank him enough.

I've perused almost 80 scans of different items that will be at auction on Saturday. The quality and diversity of the artwork is almost staggering. There is a great drawing of ComicMix's own "Lone Justice" by Wheatley in the auction. There is an amazing original drawing of of "Starslayer," a character created by Mike Grell, but drawn by Tim Truman. I think Starslayer was possiblly Tim Truman and John Ostrander's first regular gig in comics. Yes? It preceded the Truman/Ostrander creation of GrimJack!
Unfortunately, I can't get to the Chicago Comic Con to bid on any of this great stuff. It's a good thing that Comix4Sight has an easy way to make direct contributions through PayPal!
