Our Third Annual CBLDF/SDCC Auction Event just wouldn’t be complete without longtime Comic Book Legal Defense Fund supporter Larry Marder! Fortunately, he will again donate an original sketch in support of the First Amendment rights of the comics community, to be auctioned off at San Diego Comic-Con in July.
Marder is the creator of the long-running Beanworld series, now at Dark Horse Comics. This is his third consecutive year participating in our CBLDF event!
You may not be able to bid on each and every one of the sketches donated by our amazing publishers and creators this year, but you can get your own black-and-white copies! We’ll be creating limited-edition autograph cards of all of the sketches we receive, which we will be handing out for free at SDCC. Make sure to visit TFAW at booth #5625 July 21-24 to get yours!
Want to be a part of the action? If you’re a comics professional who wants to get involved, we will gladly accept new participants up through June 24–email Andrew McIntire with the subject line, “CBLDF Auction 2011″ now. Or simply become a member of the CBLDF.

More mouthwatering news: artist Rob Guillory has generously volunteered to contribute to our Third Annual CBLDF/SDCC Auction Event!
The Eisner Award-winning artist has rocketed to prominence thanks to his incredible work on Image Comics’ Chew, with writer John Layman, which features Tony Chu, a cibopathic police detective. He can learn even the smallest details of anything he eats–which makes homicide cases a leetle icky.
Guillory, along with the rest of our participating publishers and creators, will donate an original sketch to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund, an organization dedicated to defending the First Amendment rights of the comics community. These sketches will in turn be auctioned off at San Diego Comic-Con in July.
Want your own copies of these exclusive sketches? We’ll be creating limited-edition autograph cards of all of the sketches we receive, which we will be handing out for free at SDCC. Make sure to visit TFAW at booth #5625 July 21-24 to get yours!
