Howdy all!

 

I just want to give you a teaser for a very special upcoming tournament we will be having on Friday, April 29th! On that day we will be holding our first every Heroclix Charity Event benefiting the Austin Children's Shelter! The Austin Children's Shelter offers a safe haven for children and youth who are in crisis. Their mission is to reduce children's emotional trauma by providing services and quality care in a safe and nurturing environment where each child and young adult can begin to heal after being abused.

 

Money raised from this event will go to buying the kids there comic books and other reading materials. I recently spoke to the Executive Director of the Shelter and she told me that comic books are a perfect way to help the kids as they get read and reread over and over again. She told me that most of the kids there had never even seen a comic book! Imagine that, a childhood without ever seeing a comic book!

 

So here's the deal, Dragon's Lair will be hosting the tournament at our regular time on Friday, April 29th. There will be a $10.00 buy-in that all goes to the charity. Additionally, we will have a special fund that allows you to buy a reroll (for you or your opponent) for $1.00. Spectators can also make you reroll for a buck! Again, all that money goes to charity.

 

So what's in it for you besides helping a bunch of kids who need a hero? First, everyone who participates will have a chance to win the new colossal Dr. Manhattan courtesy of Dragon's Lair. Additionally, First Prize will be a complete set of all Giant Size X-Men LEs. We're lining up additional prizes which now includes a rare DC hardcover edition of the Dark Knight Returns graphic novel (only 2000 made), statues, custom maps, and great mods from HavokTX, Hulon Prime, and more!

 

 

Spread the word, we want maximum participation for this event! If you have something you want to donate as a prize, or have other questions about this event, please send them to Blue Atoll at mwbmc@yahoo.com

 

Here's hoping you'll be there on April 29th!
