I was really surprised and honoured to see that Darwyn devoted yesterday’s Day 8 of his 12 days of Christmas auctions to assist us with our fund-raising goals for 2012.The funds from the other amazing auctions he’s prepared go to benefit the Hero Initiative, a great charity that assists veteran comics creators in need of financial assistance but these two Superman-centric auctions go towards helping us meet our fundraising goals for 2012. They include:
1. Art by Darwyn Cooke 19 x 13, ink on Bristol.
This is a recreation of the most famous Shuster homage- the Neal Adams cover to Superman #233. This piece is blueline printed, roughly blue penciled and inked by Darwyn.
2. Art by Darwyn Cooke, 8/.5 x 11 blue pencil, pencil and ink on heavy bond paper
This is a design drawing of Superman from the Justice League: New Frontier animated movie
3. A copy of Superman: Kryptonite written by Darwyn Cooke and drawn by Tim Sale, signed by Darwyn.
1. Full Color Superman portrait in the classic Shuster pose, drawn and painted by Darwyn Cooke, 16 x 12 on watercolour paper
2. Art by Darwyn Cooke, 8/.5 x 11 blue pencil, pencil and ink on bond paper

We can’t thank Darwyn enough for his generosity in doing this, and huge thanks to the two lucky winners who win these amazing auctions!
That’s pretty awesome.
