A whole bunch of folks, myself included, grew up on comic books and began writing and/or drawing them in the seventies and eighties. People got into the industry before us, of course, but in those two decades, there was a huge influx of New Talent, some of which offered "new" without much in the "talent" department and some who were good at both. One of the best writers, I thought, was a gent named Mike W. Barr. You may know his work from, among many other books, Camelot 3000, The Maze Agency, Batman and the Outsiders, Batman without the Outsiders, Star Trek and many more.
The last year or two, I'd heard that Mike had some health problems but no one knew — or if they knew, told me — how severe they were. A friend has set up a GoFundMe page for donations because Mike really needs help. If you go to that page and read what he's been through, you'll be horrified. I sure was…so please, if you ever enjoyed a comic book by Mike or even if you didn't, kick in something to help him. Like my subject line says, he's one of the good guys.
