Chris Sparks, a professional web designer, is leading the Team Cul de Sac (TCDS) fundraising effort in honor of his friend Richard Thompson, the cartoonist behind the Cul de Saccomic strip. Richard was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. With Richard's support, TCDS asked cartoonists across the country to draw his characters so the artwork can be compiled into a fundraising book and the artwork auctioned to raise additional money.
What you see above is the dust-jacket for the completed book which will be released in June 2012. You can pre-order here.
This book features 150 well-known cartoonists and their take on Richard Thompson's quirky and delightful Cul de Sac world. You can see a list of all contributors here. I am very pleased to be a part of this project which will raise money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation to support research for Parkinson's disease.
This is an exceptional collection of the cartooning industry's professionals and a must-have for anyone interested in this field...and all the more-so for its support for Parkinson's research.
