Original Comics Art Auction To Benefit Ondoy Flood Victims

Filed Under Comics Artists, Filipino Artists, Philippine Comics | 7 Comments

With the help of other comics professionals, I’ve begun an Ebay auction of original comics artwork which would benefit victims of the flooding brought on my Typhoon Ondoy (Ketsana). Initial recipients will be Komikeros who have lost or damaged homes and property, and the rest will be donated to the Philippine Red Cross.

There is only one piece up right now, but more pieces will be added soon.

I’m currently collecting pieces to auction from other comics pros. Pieces that have International interest (like original art from Marvel, DC, Image and other international comics publications) will be sold on Ebay Worldwide. Other pieces will be sold at the 5th Komikon on October 18.

    Where can we make donations specifically for the artists?

    Ferres, you can get in touch with Nestor Malgapo, who would know how to get in touch with them. I have a phone number for Rico Rival, but it might understandably be down at the moment. You can email Mang Nestor at nesmalgapo at yahoo dot com

    It’s actually easier to get in touch with the younger guys like Carlo Vergara, Jay David Ramos, Gilbert Monsanto and Melvin Calingo since the have some online presence. Email ka lang sa kanila. You can email Danny Acuña at danny_acuna at yahoo dot com
