Press Release
Las Vegas is where Pop! Goes the Icon was born and will always be where its heart resides. That heart was bruised (but not broken!) on Sunday, Oct. 1, when 58 people were killed and more than 500 injured in one of the deadliest mass shootings in U.S. history. In the aftermath, the Las Vegas community came together like never seen before to help victims and those affected by donating blood, providing shelter and transportation, collecting much-needed items, and helping to raise funds to cover medical and other expenses incurred as a result of this tragedy.
Now it’s our turn to help, with a little from you. We’ve put digital versions of the first issue of all of our comic series–some long out-of-print–into a special #VegasStrong Comics Bundle. 100 percent of sales from this bundle will be donated to the Las Vegas Victims’ Fund established by Clark County Commission Chairperson Steve Sisolak. Yes, you can donate to the fund directly, but we thought we’d toss in a little reward to say “thank you” for doing your part to ensure the victims and their families do not suffer unduly by struggling with financial burdens.
The bundle includes the following comics in PDF format:
- Omega Comics Presents Vol. 1, No. 1
- Omega Comics Presents Vol. 2, No. 1
- Old Wounds No. 1
- San Hannibal No. 1
- The Utopian No. 1
