I am embarrassingly late in noting that this upcoming Sunday is the annual Women of Wonder Day in my hometown of Portland OR, as well as San Antonio, TX, and Flemington, NJ. Formerly known as Wonder Woman Day, this is the catch-all title for three events happening in a comic store of each of the above cities in support of Domestic Violence programs, with creator appearances, signings and original art auctions taking place in Portland’s Excalibur Comics, Heroes And Fantasies in San Antonio and Comic Fusion in Flemington. Previous events have raised more than $110,000 for survivors of domestic violence, with 100% of all proceeds from the events going to the charities.
For more details, go here. And if you want to bid on some pretty great auctions for the event – including the chance to appear in a Bendis comic – go here.
