The Sidekick Foundation

The SideKick Foundation is a "New Friend to Creators in Need" established by Clifford Meth. If you are a comics creator in need of assistance, the Sidekick Foundation is here to assist.
"The Sidekick Foundation is a new confederacy that seeks to generously aid comics creators in need of financial and medical assistance. Sidekick’s board of directors and advisors consists of established, respected comics professionals who have agreed to support the organization’s initiative which, in its first year, shall be to donate 90% of all generated proceeds directly to those in need."
The Board of Advisors includes
  • Neal Adams
  • Harlan Ellison
  • Joe Sinnott
  • Tom Palmer
  • Herb Trimpe
  • Morris Berger (former president of IDT Entertainment and chairman of IDW Publishing).
"Sidekick will debut at New York ComicCon on Sunday, October 16. Artist David Lloyd (“V for Vendetta”) will be drawing for Sidekick at the Cadence table #3153 from 12:30 to 1:30 pm. In addition, Clifford Meth and writer Don McGregor will be selling donated art as well as items from the late Gene Colan and Dave Cockrum, among others. Future signings and events are planned from artists Michael Netzer and Bill Messner-Loebs."
