However, I do post all comments/questions (with the exception of duplicate questions)...just be patient, please. 2. Please remember to "@name" when addressing someone. That's it, let's get started!

Great Job Felix!  Thats amazing
Felix Lu
2:23
Thanks Tobin! Collectors REALLY stepped up. Not just us, excellent response across the board.
Keith B
2:24
yeah, it's awesome!
Felix Lu
2:25
Also brings a lot of new eyeballs to OA. A bit of a double-edged sword in the present, I know, but necessary for future of our hobby. Still soooo many comics fans who don't know about original art.
Keith B
2:25
it does... i think i'm going to write about all the charity things for my next article
Rudra
2:26
Nice one for raising that amount for charity Felix !
Felix Lu
2:26
Thanks Rudra! We've done things like this before, but not at this level. Learned a lot that we can apply to next event!
Keith B
2:26
... i think it's all really really cool
Teddie M

Take that, Jim Lee.
Felix Lu
2:27
Ha! No way. Jim is still the king.
He's the one who's really bringing in new blood to the hobby with those auctions.

Hi Felix! Hi All! Amazing result for an amazing cause, I'm sure the money gathered would ba an important help and I'm sure you as the mentor of the fundraising, the artists and the collectors who make it possible with their donations must be proud, congratulations to everybody!

Evan
2:28
Any details on what you'll be offering for Bilquis - pages or commissions?  And when the first drops might be?
Felix Lu
2:29
@Evan...sorry, nothing set yet. Will announce via newsletter once we have that figured out (as usual). For now, still need to get the art from Brazil!
2:30
And sorry, no commissions any time soon. DC is just keeping her too busy.
Rob Rusch
2:30
Keith, what's the CFA-APA?

Well done Felix! Congrats on a fantastic result. Very generous on the part of you and your artists.
Felix Lu
2:31
Thanks AK! Everyone feels good that they could contribute to what's going on. I couldn't be out there with the crowds, but at least I could do this.
Rudra
2:31
@Felix. Like Choe collectors ?
Felix Lu
2:31
@Rudra...haha! No, but who knows, maybe David will lend us some of his magic later...

Hey Felix! So great to see that much money raised!!! Hats off to all the artists that contributed. A lot of really amazing pieces.
Felix Lu
2:32
Thanks Tyler! Yes, lots of excellent art, which was the main reason we exceeded our goals.
Rob Rusch
2:32
Thanks Keith and Rudra. Guess I'll have to leech off you Keith haha

Hey Felix i have a question about Andrew Maclean’s art.  Will any of his past head lopper pages hit the site and some point?
Felix Lu
2:34
@Tobin...yes, I will be getting some more. But it will still be limited, as Andrew prefers to keep most of it. He's still letting go of more than he ever has, though!
Victor B.

Hey Felix and all! So glad to see the total that high! Also, real happy the Nicks Batman year one went that high!
