In this day and age, it’s more important than ever to promote tolerance and acceptance. Which is why organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center need all the help they can get. So kudos to the Space Goat for their new charity comic project, Nazi Puncher.
One hundred percent of the net proceeds generated by the book will go towards the SPLC, so calling this a worthy purchase is something of an understatement.
They’ve already got some big names in the comic industry on board, including Bill Sienkiewicz, Ty Templeton, Ted Naifeh, and Aaron Alexovich. If you’d like to submit your own short story about Nazis being punched to be included in the anthology, you can get the details here. Make sure you submit before the deadline on April 30th.
From the Press Release:
Publisher Space Goat Productions is producing Nazi Puncher: a comic and art anthology benefiting the Southern Poverty Law Center. The anthology will exclusively feature art and comics depicting Nazis or fascists getting punched, smacked, kicked, or generally beat down on.
“We ask the big questions at Space Goat, like, ‘When is it appropriate to punch a Nazi?'” stated Publisher Shon Bury. “That’s not hard to answer,” he continued. “We do what our grandfathers did: We punch Nazis every time they show their faces.”
Artists confirmed to be a part of the anthology include Bill Sienkiewicz (Elektra: Assassin, The New Mutants), Ted Naifeh (Courtney Crumrin, Princess Ugg, Heroines), Aaron Alexovich (Serenity Rose, Invader Zim), and Ty Templeton (Batman ’66, Batman Adventures, Spider-Man). Submissions are still open until 4/30, and more details can be found on Space Goat Publishing’s website.
Both digital and physical versions of the anthology will be available for pre-order online and in local comic book stores. Retailers will have the option to get a retailer-exclusive cover for the anthology and retailer0exclusive Nazi Puncher buttons, tees, stickers, and posters. One hundred percent of the net proceeds will go to the Southern Poverty Law Center. Artists, writers, editors, and designers are all donating their time to make this anthology a reality.
“Unlike some publishers,” said Space Goat’s Director of Marketing and Sales JD Boucher, “Space Goat believes the only time a Nazi should be in a comic or displayed in a store is if they are getting punched in the face.”
