Today I thought I’d write a little about the CBLDF, or Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. As the group’s website says, “Comic Book Legal Defense Fund is a non-profit organization dedicated to the protection of the First Amendment rights of the comics art form and its community of retailers, creators, publishers, librarians, and readers. The CBLDF provides legal referrals, representation, advice, assistance, and education in furtherance of these goals.” The website goes into more detail about the sort of work they do, so I won’t go much more into it here, but the CBLDF is really at the forefront of defending the comic medium from censorship.
The CBLDF has a ton of supporters in the industry, and a lot of artists have donated signed books and art to raise money for the group. Check out the online store for all the cool stuff you can get for supporting the fund. If you’ve got a bit more money to give, you can even meet comic superstars like Neil Gaiman and Jeff Smith.
So go check it out, and I’ll be back on Wednesday with this week’s webcomic.
Happy reading,
