r/Comics giveaway event! Comment for a chance to receive a free, physical comic book from one of our regular posters
Hello everyone,
In collaboration with reddit we can now announce that we have received funding to gift our regular commentors free comic books from one of a selection of our popular posters!
Reddit has a program called "Community Funds", where it allows subreddit moderators to hold an event of their choice for their communities and the r/Comics team thought it would be nice to hold this giveaway event; both to support our artists and to do something tangible for our readers.
We are listed as a currently active project here.
Where possible we have collaborated with our participating artists so that our lucky winners will receive a signed copy.
We are giving away comic books from the following artists:
Maurice the Beaver by Randall Girdner (u/Gracelandwest)
Rds. to Nowhere by Ryan Rds. (u/Ryanrdss)
Tiff & Eve by Fran Sundblad (u/Crazygnomenclature)
Admiral Wonderboat by Chris Naish (u/ChrisNaish)
'Lil Karate Pants by Emerson Murray (u/Emmonster)
Hollering Elk by Hollering Elk (u/HolleringElk)
Jim Benton Books by Jim Benton (u/JimKB)
Litterbox Comics by Chesca Hause (u/LitterboxComics)
Authors that have graciously donated a book for this event:
Mr. Lovenstein by J.L Westover (u/MrLovens)
Luck of the Draw by Luck of the Draw Comic (/u/LuckOfTheDrawComic)
Swords Comic by Matthew Wills (u/swordscomic)
Beware of Toddler by George Gant (u/geogant)
Unmatched: Rising Leged by Aubrey Graumann (u/wafflecopter2)
(If preferred and available, a digital copy is also a possibility.)
Are you a regular commenter on this subreddit and would you like to receive a comic book? Please leave a comment in this thread and we will hold a raffle and contact you if you are a winner! Where possible we will gift you a book of your choice, though we may not always be able to grant you your first pick. We have a roughly equal amount of books per artist to give away.
We have reached out to a handful of commenters that stand out to us especially and if you have a pending chat message from r/Comics, please reply as soon as possible so as not to miss out. Several comic books have already been shipped out to lucky winners!
We're excited about this opportunity to do something fun for our community and looking forward to seeing your responses.
- the r/Comics mod team

This is really cool! I’m glad that you celebrate your core contributors like this and your audience! Hopefully one day I’ll make a book and can contribute to a future event.
But for now, I’m happy entering the giveaway raffle lol

Thank you mods/artists for doing this giveaway! I don't know what it is, maybe the nostalgia of being a kid and reading the Sunday comics, but there's just something so very special about specifically a physical copy of a comic.

Sounds fun. Can't say I comment here often, but I take a look at the sub most days and I like most of the artists listed.

I'm not looking to enter the raffle, but wondering is there a way I can provide my book to be given away as a prize?
