It’s that time of year again when our domain provider seeks to extract a fair chunk of change from my wallet for hosting the main DTT site (www.downtetubes.net).
Put together by volunteers to promote the British comic industy since 1999, we hope you enjoy our work (and thanks in particular to Jeremy Briggs for his major contribution to our ongoing editorial).
While we do generate some revenue through Amazon links and Google ads, if you feel able to make a donation to help keep us afloat in difficult times, we’d be very grateful.
You should be able to donate via the buttons below or donate via Paypal via johnfsfreemanATbtopenworld.com.
If you’d like to contribute to our site by writing news stories or features, please also drop me a line! There’s a massive amount of goings on in the world of British comics and we know we miss some! If you’re planning on going to attend a comic convention or signing, or would like to submit reviews, have a look back through our posts to see how we format them.
We look forward to hearing from you.
