Proceeds go for humanitarian relief & contributions by numerous top people in the comics industry.
I actually purchased the issue signed by Mr. Bill Sienkiewicz -- there are many different ones to choose from & they've nearly gotten $150,000!!

- I have a copy ordered. Looks like a great book, and it supports a great cause!
When ordering, be aware this book does not exist yet. It will be months before you receive your book, but it should be worth the wait.Did I err?

- I know it'll be many weeks (if not months) -- although I've lived in Nebraska most of my life, I was born in San Antonio & wouldn't lead a fellow Texan astray!!

- T.I.A. -- I found article, from The Hollywood Reporter, that says "Titled Comics for Ukraine: Sunflower Seeds, the anthology book is the brainchild of Scott Dunbier, a veteran industry editor currently at IDW who teamed up with comic crowdfunding platform Zoop and charity Operation USA for the effort."

You can take the Texan out of Texas, but you can't take the Texas out of a Texan. 
Thanks for posting about the book!Did I err?

So, would we take "Scott Dunbier/Zoop" as publisher to be correct?
FYI: Thx to do the research

- Unless it's easier to list under IDW, for easy look up -- website indicates 1,160 "supporters" ...most of which, I'm thinking, are issues ordered?

Belgium is in NATO, so when Daddy Po... wanna set foot on us, the US have to act (Art. No.5) , So maybe (let's hope NOT) I see you when you cross the Atlantic to help. Our Country helps alot refugees, but as always you cant do enough  English is not my native language, please forgive my grammar / spelling...

- I understand...Brussels is NATO Headquarters -- my Mom was close to being transferred there, back when I was in high school, but that was 40 years ago. If (on the outside chance) I'm called up, I'll be there!!

- I ordered the Arthur Adams cover. Love his stuff and it's for a good cause, so an easy purchase for me.

- GOOD Deal junobeach -- that's exactly the way I felt about getting Bill Sienkiewicz's signature, it's a great thing & fantastic charity!
