To all those who've asked: We're preparing our little campaign to help our pal Len Wein, who lost much of what he owns in a fire one week ago. In a day or three, I'll be opening a web page to try and collect copies of Len's work for him…extra copies you may have of comics he wrote. A lot of you have already written with generous offers and they're appreciated. The page will tell you how to follow through on those offers.
By the way: I spoke to Len about an hour ago and he and Chris seem to be doing okay. They're kinda overwhelmed by the sheer volume of things that have to be done but they're moving forward. In a day or three, they'll be moving into a rental home not far from their once and future dwelling. They might be in these temporary quarters for a year. Len says he appreciates the outpouring of sympathy and friendship and I'm sure you'll be hearing that directly from him once things get a little more settled.
