Hi all
After the success of the last raffle for Magic Breakfast, many folk approached me asking if I would run another one, but with lots of donated prizes.
So here it is - freshly launched today, with a ton of stuff up for grabs!
https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/ukcomicfansxmasnewyearraffleHere's the blurb:
As you are probably aware, more than one in four children in the UK currently go hungry. With little aid from the UK government, and more economic turmoil on the horizon, it turns once again to us to do what we can.
That is why I have chosen Magic Breakfast again for my fundraising raffle, which aims to provide the most vulnerable children their first meal of the day, and for many their only meal of the day.
Some of you will have participated in my model raffles before, where we raised a huge amount for Save the Children and Magic Breakfast. I am asking you once again to please dig deep for the kids of the U.K.
If you are a fan of independent UK comics, or Judge Dredd and 2000AD, you would likely love to win any of the following prizes, donated very generously by fans, artists, and comic editors.
The raffle will be drawn at the end of January.
Let’s see what the prizes are:
TOP PRIZES
The ‘77 variant issues: The first three variant issues of new independent UK sci-fi comic The ‘77, which you may have already seen on the shelves of Forbidden Planet!
Original artwork from Andy Sawyer: Returning to illustration after a 25 year hiatus, Andy is currently illustrating The Cell for The ’77, and recently created album art for Vertical Noise and The Aggros (Cro Mags). He has offered a prize of an A4sketch of a subject of your choice!
Judge Minty – rare lead miniature: This is a much sought-after miniature amongst 2000AD fans, a very limited edition released in conjunction with the famous Judge Minty fan film!
Dave the Orangutan – one-off Judge Dredd Model: This is the last of Scowlin Munkeh’s 2000AD models. It is a one-of-a-kind one-off piece, based on the famous mayor of Mega-City One, Dave the Orangutan. However, he comes with accessories, so he can also be turned into The Librarian from the famous Terry Pratchett Discworld novels!
Judge Dredd Block War Card Game: From ‘Game and a Curry’ games, this is a classic two-player card game where you go head-to-head as Mega-City One housing blocks, with the Judges in the middle trying to stop both of you!
Runner-Up Prizes:
Judge Dredd Annual 1987
2000AD Annual 1987
Judge Dredd Funko Pop – boxed
2000AD/SFX Playing Cards
