Guardians of the Galaxy is coming August 1, and July is going to be a celebration of all things Guardians AND a special benefit art month for Bill Mantlo here at Multiversity. All month, we’ll be posting Guardians-related pieces created by some of our favorite artists, and at the end of the month there will be an auction of many of the pieces of original art to help the man who created Rocket Raccoon, Bill Mantlo. It’s going to be an exciting month, but you can help Bill even if you don’t bid on any art. Read more about Bill and his story here, and if you feel moved to donate to Bill yourself, you can do so by clicking here.
Gabo is a Chicago-based artist (real name: Gabriel Bautista), who, along with Joshua Hale Fialkov, launches “The Life After” for Oni today! Gabo is also the artist for “Albert the Alien” with writer Trevor Mueller for Thrillbent. He is also an accomplished colorist, having worked on both “The Spirit” and “All-Star Western” for DC, the Eisner-winning anthology “Comic Book Tattoo” for Image, and has penciled pieces in both “Elephantmen” and “Popgun” for Image. He is also the creator of the comics battling site EnterVoid.com. You can find him on Twitter (@galvosaur), on Facebook, or on his website, and he is a part of the BroFu artist collective.
Gabo’s piece will be auctioned off later this summer to benefit Bill Mantlo. Stay tuned for auction information!
If you are a professional artist interested in donating a piece for the auction, please email brian@multiversitycomics.com or david@multiversitycomics.com for more details.
