I know this makes me a horrible person, for not promoting when other comic book artists have needed help. I’m hoping to change that, going forward. Bob Wiacek is by far one of my favorite inkers, of all time. He could really use some help, if you are so inclined and have the money to do so, that would be great.
I wish I was able to give $40, as a Wiack drawn Kitty Pryde piece, would be awesome or a Lockheed piece.
I didn’t know that his wife passed three years ago or that he was living with his son. I hope him the best, as he continues to recover from his arm injury.
Thus far, 55 people have provided $3,605 of the $10,000 goal.
I’m hoping Marvel and the Heroes Initiative are able to provide him some help, as well.
Thanks and special shoutouts to Brian Michael Bendis, Sam Humprhies and Chris Sotomayor for pointing me towards the link above. They all posted links on Tuesday night (that’s where the numbers came from).
By the time I finished this post, it went up to 73 people with $$4,385 – good job everybody!
At, 11:04am, Wednesday (my time), they reached their goal of $10,000 but I believe any additional money, will still be helpful.
