everydaypants: katiepdx: pzsretreat09 on Flickr. Dylan Williams is one of the inspiring people I know. For the past three years, I have had the pleasure of organizing the Portland Zine Symposium with Dylan, where I have seen first-hand his willingness to help out wherever he can to support zines, comics, and independent publishing. He is one of the most humble, reasonable, helpful, caring, and thoughtful people I know, going way out of his way to make everyone comfortable and create a supportive environment for collective organizing. I really cannot say enough good things about him. He is one in a million. As you may know, Dylan has struggled over the past year with his health. A few months ago, he received a cancer diagnosis, and he has been in and out of the hospital for far too long. This just about breaks my heart, and I think of him all the time, wishing there was something I could do to help Dylan and his wife Emily and show them my love and support.  Fortunately, there is a way to help. Dylan runs Sparkplug Comics in SE Portland, and one of the best ways to help him out is to order comics and zines from his store and/or visit the store and throw down some cash. If you want suggestions on what to get, several folks have created some lists to help you out.  This Tumblr has been created to help auction off original artwork inspired by Philip K. Dick. 100 percent of the proceeds will go to Dylan. You can either check it out through the Tumblr, or look here and here to see what’s up for auction. In addition to original art, there are also special edition graphic novels and art books for sale.   I can’t think of a person more deserving of your support than Dylan. Please do what you can to help out one of the greatest creators and supporters of indie comics.  Consider buying comics to help Dylan tackle exhaustive medical bills. Dylan is a huge force in the indie comics scene and works really hard to support other artists. Consider supporting him! Dylan is one of our favorite people we have met in the Portland comic scene. He has done so much to support the growth of alternative comics. We hope all our followers will take a moment and check out the amazing Sparkplug Comics catalog and support him during this hard time.
