In the aftermath of the April tornadoes that ravaged several southeastern states, 12-Gauge Comics will publish Country Ass-Whuppin’!.
Featuring over 30 creators, the comics collection will raise money for the Red Cross following a tornado outbreak in Alabama in April.
“100% of the proceeds will be going to the Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund in Alabama,” 12-Gauge president Keven Gardner told Comic Book Resources.
“Not one person working on Country Ass-Whuppin’ is taking a dollar from the sales. The writers, artists, colourists, production team, etc, are all working on this out of the kindness of their hearts. It’s pretty simple, really.”
Gardner continued: “All of the stories are about someone beating someone else’s ass, or getting their own ass kicked… and mostly in a humorous fashion.
“A few stories are 100% true, some are tall tales, but they are all entertaining. Our hope is to share a slice of the South with comic fans all over. This definitely isn’t a book making fun of the South, although we are certainly having fun doing the stories.”
