2025 was really rough with medical bills and I’m carrying a lot of credit card debt. If I held a claim sale to sell off my comics, would that be anything folks would want to participate in? Just trying to think of a way to do it.

My friend William Bruce West has had a serious stroke. I’ve known him for many many years. Really nice guy who has a wife, 2 kids, and an older mother to take care of. There’s a Gofundme to help the family if you’re in a position to help.
