Traffic lights


From FALLEN ANGEL artist J.K. Woodward:

Fallen Angel Joins the Comic Creator's Alliance
The Comic Creator's Alliance is a project founded by Lora Innes (THE DREAMER,IDW 2009) as a way of raising Money for the purpose of ending human trafficking in the world today.

It started as a group of web comic creators coming together and donating art. Shortly after announcing the project on an episode of popular comicbook podcast Comic Geek Speak, Peter David and J.K.Woodward, along with other print comic creators started getting involved as well.

Currently there are over 60 creators donating illustrations of their female protagonists to be assembled later in a single illustration. This illustration will be available as a downloadable wallpaper for those who donate to the fund raising drive.

The donation drive will start on January 11th which is no coincidence. January 11th is National Human Trafficking Awareness Day here in the U.S.

There are currently 27 million enslaved people worldwide. UNICEF estimates that 1.2 million children every year are sold into slavery, most of it sexual. You can help and get one hell of a collaborative work of art while your at it!
