100 female & non-binary comic book creatives combine forces for COVID-19 fundraising “Insider Art” anthology

By John Freeman on July 3, 2020

Over 100 female & non-binary comic book creatives from around the world are raising money for females & non-binary comic book retailers who have been hit hard by the Coronavirus Pandemic with the creation of Insider Art – offering over 250 pages of comics, crafts… and cats.

Offering comics from a host of great creators including Shelly Bond, Becky Cloonan and British artists such as Fiona Boyd, all proceeds from sales of the digital anthology will go to the Insider Art: Female & Non-Binary Comic Book Retailer Fund.
