Wow, that is such a great idea! I have no idea what the comic is about, but I'd like to give it a try. Do you need my address/whatever?

Hurrah! I was really afraid I would do this and then no one would ask and I would just look dumb :) But yes, email me your address! fourteenacross@gmail.com! The issue comes out on Wednesday and hopefully I will be able to mail it by that weekend!

Me me! I'll pay you for it and we can work something out for shipping as well, because all the online places charge an arm and a leg to get it to nz. :D?

Like, it's not the price of the comic that's a problem for me it's the delivery :/

Good question! I went through all the posts he made about it and I can't see a place where he specifically talks about digital comics, but he's doing it based on his royalties and I imagine the digital comics are included in royalty checks? So I would think that would work.

It's issue 7 and it drops this Wednesday! :D

(Also, it's just a really fun book overall? Like, I couldn't care less about Clint or Hawkeye (though I liked Kate) prior to reading this, but a bunch of people I knew said it was excellent and it skyrocketed up to one of my favorite comics. I'm sure this issue will be emotional, but they're generally one-shot, stand alone stories of Clint and Kate in their downtime when they're not avenging shit. It's fun!)

I came here to commend you for doing this (though I have a nearby comics shop I'll be purchasing it from) but I know the answer to this one!

He wants to donate the proceeds from digital, but isn't sure exactly how that will work, as the way in which he is paid for digital comics is somewhat convoluted (my guess would be he just get paychecks with no division to indicate which comic/issue was sold?)

Last I heard he was still trying to figure out how he was going to do that, but digital comics are not a sure bet in terms of providing money for Sandy relief.

Aww, that's a super nice thing to do! I don't actually want one because I just don't want to deal with single issue comics in my life. But I want you to know that I'm totes ordering the first Hawkeye trade for my library AND I will check it out firstttt when it arrives.

Awesome! :D Like I said, I don't actually like...care about Clint Barton? But this is sort of a slice-of-life comic about what Clint and Kate do when they're not being Hawkeye(s), which apparently is mostly hanging around Clint's apartment building, intervening in local crime, and sassing each other a lot.
