Retailer, Artists Help Victims of Domestic Violence
Do-gooders don't always wear flashy costumes, brand catchy names or have special powers. But, retailers like Comic Fusion are doing their part to help lives, nonetheless.
Hosting their sixth annual "Super Hero Weekend," October 6-7th, Comic Fusion will be raising money for SAFE in Hunterdon, New Jersey, a non-profit organization providing services to victims of domestic and sexual abuse.
Comic Fusion's online auction, featuring over 30 superhero sketches, began last week and ends Saturday night, October 6th. The bidding continues live at Comic Fusion in Flemington on Sunday, October 7th.
Artists contributing sketches for the online auction include:
- Jamal Igle: DC Comic's top veteran from Supergirl, Superman, Firestorm and Zatanna and Action Lab Entertainment's upcoming all-ages book Molly Danger
- Jim Calafiore: Awesome artist of Secret Six, Gotham Underground and the up-coming Leaving Megalopolis
- Mike Deodato, Jr.: Hot artist of Amazing Spider-Man, Wonder Woman and X-Men
- Dave Wachter: Eisner and Harvey nominated artist of Guns of Shadow Valley and That Hellbound Train
- Charles Wilson III: Independent breakout artist on The Stuff of Legends

On Saturday, Comic Fusion will host several guest artists including Jim Calafiore (Secret Six) and Jamal Igle (Supergirl).
On Sunday, the shop hosts Ken Haeser and Buz Hasson (The Living Corpse), Charles Wilson III (Stuff of Legend) and Chris Flick (Capes and Babes) in addition to other artists.
Visitors are encouraged to have their cameras ready to meet favorite superheroes like Batman, Wonder Woman and Flash along with Star Wars characters from the 501st and the Rebel Legion.
