Bertram/Dragotta/Love/Pitarra/Sook NAACP benefit auctions start NOW!

Published on June 17, 2020

Our benefit auctions for the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund continue with new contributions from IAN BERTRAM, NICK DRAGOTTA, JEFFREY ALAN LOVE, NICK PITARRA, and RYAN SOOK...round 6 starts NOW!

From Ian, we have a special bonus page from LITTLE BIRD...yes, the same LITTLE BIRD that was Image's breakout hit of 2019, that was just feted with multiple Eisner Award nominations (including Best Artist for Ian!), and that was a total original art sell-out for us! All 150 pieces! So if you missed out on the art, here's your chance to get a previously unpublished page that may be used for a future expanded edition!

From Nick D., we have a Batman piece with a hand-drawn logo of his own design! Nick's commission opportunities are rare (and always sell out whenever he takes a list), so don't miss this chance to add a Dragotta Bats to your collection!

From Jeffrey, we have a special illustration entitled "The Undying Earth". This piece WILL be published in an upcoming book project. His illustrations get snapped up as soon as we drop them, and we don't have another drop planned for the foreseeable future...so don't sleep on this!

From Nick P., we have Hellboy! His first crack at tackling the Right Hand of Doom, and he delivers in pure Pitarra fashion! Full-size 11X17 with hand-drawn logo!

And from Ryan...a beautifully-inked cover, DCU PRESENTS #14! Featuring Black Lightning and Blue Devil! All the art this round is fantastic, but this is a published cover, folks! It doesn't get any better!

Please place your bids in the post for each of the pieces on Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook. Whichever is your social media outlet of choice. OR you can submit your bid to me directly. I will then update social media with the high bid.

All auctions will end tomorrow, Thursday June 18th, at 5PM PDT/8PM EDT. Don't wait until the end to bid and risk forgetting about it...place your bids early and often! Remember, ALL proceeds go to the NAACP! PLEASE help spread the word!

(IMPORTANT NOTE: All winners will donate directly to the NAACP via a link we provide, so any tax deductible amount is yours. (Please consult your CPA first!) As well, for those who have employers who will match donations, we will consider that part of your bid. So please contact us before bidding if you plan to utilize that. Thanks!)

Thanks everyone, and keep watching for more fantastic art auctions over the next week!
