A Moment of SDOAR: 4 Silverspoon, 2 SDOAR Pages Unlocked

1) TWO new pages unlocked for donors of the Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundme since my last update. If you haven't read them yet, go check out Dropbox -- or donate $5 to get access!

2) Sounds like most readers would like there to be multiple winners in the raffle this time around. So the first winner selected gets their choice of page, then the second, then the third and so on.

So let it be written, so let it be done. 

3) To that point, here is fourth page in total on the barbie, this time the full-page Silverspoon strip from The Buyer's Guide for Comic Fandom #329, February 22, 1980, a.k.a. page six.

In addition to the full-page Silverspoon strip from The Buyer's Guide for Comic Fandom #321, January 11, 1980, a.k.a. page three, and ...

The full-page Silverspoon strip from The Buyer's Guide for Comic Fandom #325, February 8, 1980, a.k.a. page four.


The full-page Silverspoon strip from The Buyer's Guide for Comic Fandom #327, February 22, 1980, a.k.a. page five.

4) 254 raffle tickets sold so far!

Next time: Giant-Size Ashcan updates!

Just the GoFundMe Facts, Ma'am

  • $19,266.00 raised to date from 347 donations
  • 120 pages released so far as mocked up and/or drawn by Dave Sim through 10 Feb 2022.

The Strange Death of Alex Raymond New Mockups Preview 

If you haven't read The Strange Death of Alex Raymond before, we have an eight-page trailer that Dave did back in 2018: Part One | Part Two

Then the Dave Sim portion of the hardcover, presented four pages at a time:

This
Thisthis
Thisthisthis
Thisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthis
Thisthisthis
And this.

If you want to see how Carson Grubaugh finished the hardcover, well, you're going to need to purchase a copy of your own. HOWEVER, if you want to see how Dave Sim continued the story in the blue pages -- bring me the blue pages -- mockups that appeared in blue ink in final section of the hardcover can be found here...

This, 
This, and this.

Then in June 2021, Dave picked up the story again and it continues herehereherehere, and here.

If you enjoy the journey, you can join us for all the new pages on Dropbox by donating $5 or more.

I'm sorry. Asking for help. I cant figure it out, so... How exactly can I enter the raffle? I'd love one of those pages. I bid on some that were on ebay months ago but somebody outbid me with 10 seconds to go!!! Not a happy day.

Jen forgot that bit...

For every five dollars donated through the GoFundMe, you get an entry into the raffle. Yes, you can donate more to get more entries.
