Beginning NOW when you come to our Manhattan location you can buy a raffle ticket to win ORIGINAL STEVE DILLON ART! Steve is generously donating original pages from some of his recent work to this great cause, and you can win one with the purchase of a raffle ticket for only $5.oo! The more tickets you buy, the better your chances are! There is no limit to the amount of raffle tickets you can buy; winners must be present during the drawing (held during the signing) to win prizes. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to win some original art from one of the most significant artists working in comics today, all while helping The Hero Initiative!

Oh, but we are not done! For a suggested minimum donation of ONLY $15 you can get an original head-sketch by Steve! Again, all proceeds go to The Hero Initiative, the only charity for helping out creators in need.

So come down to JHU's Manhattan location to buy your tickets for your chance to win original Steve Dillon art, with all the festivities starting at 6:00pm on June 24, only at Jim Hanley's Universe - Where Art and Literature Meet.Read More
