As some of you know, John Ostrander recently had surgery for glaucoma in an attempt to save his eyesight. He told us at Superman Celebration last month that everything had gone well and, so far, the surgeries have been a success.
Being self-employed, he only has cobra insurance which did not/will not cover the costs and so a benefit has been arranged for him at Chicago Comic-Con.
