the auction will go live at midnight on august 8th, but more details will be revealed on this site and also drawtheworldtogether.com

McMahon artwork? Sweet! Though would it be possible for Rufus and Wake to have some kind of bidding 'handicap' during the auction to give the rest of us a chance? Maybe ... I dunno ... break their fingers, or something? ;)

[Buddy]

If there's McMahon artwork up for grabbs just accept it's got "Property of R. Dayglow" on the back.

[Wake]

I have several bidding handicaps on this auction.

I have no spare money.

I already have a McMahon Judge Dredd page and wouldn't want to pay the current market value for a second.

I'm on holiday for nearly 3 weeks from tomorrow morning, so I won't be able to bid on anything anyway.

Cheers,

Wake

Also... Mick doesn't have any old pages left (some git bought them all..grumble).
So if he's donating something, it'll be new.

I've donated the Future Shock Page written by Al Ewing, Inked by Garry 'Miracleman' Leach.
