• Oni Press is currently holding a charity auction at Ebay to benefit the American Red Cross. There’s a TON of great items out there, but this one might be of key interest to you – Phil Hester donated his original thumbnails to the Clerks The Lost Scene comic book. You can get your bids in or check the status of the auction by clicking HERE. The thumbnails are at $200 with 4 days to go at this point, so you still have plenty of time to get in there with a bid. Not only is this a fantastic View Askew item, but it’s a great cause to donate to. Don’t miss your chance to own these.

Surf over HERE for a link to all of the auction items that Oni’s got going on right now, it’s an impressive list. Donate to a GREAT cause and get a one-of-a-kind collector’s item to boot, get those bids in today, and good luck!
