Top Cow Universe Trading Cards to raise money for New
York City! |
Dynamic Forces teams up with
Top Cow and Joe Michael Straczynski to raise money to aid New
York City's Police and Firefighters Widow's and Orphans Fund!
The upcoming Top Cow Universe trading card series will have
a limited number of boxes featuring 5 inserted box toppers featuring
Patriot from Rising Stars! These box toppers will be the first
rare card that fans see when they open a Top Cow Universe box
and will placed in specially ordered boxes of the Top Cow Universe
Trading Card Series. From this limited edition run Joe Michael
Straczynski will be donating his royalty to the New York Policemen's
Widow's and Orphans fund. Dynamic Forces is matching the royalty
to donate even more money to the charities! "Rising Stars'
Patriot stands for patriotism, honor and courage, and the NY
Police and Firefighters that were the heroes of 911. Many of
them lost their lives, and their families now need our help!
When we
discussed this idea with Joe Michael Straczynski and Top Cow,
we thought this was a great way to work together to help raise
money for this great charity. By pre-selling the Top Cow Universe
trading Cards with limited edition Patriot box topper cards
the fans get an extra bonus and the money is going to all
this New York based charity. Patriot is the symbol of freedom
in the Rising Stars Universe! Patriot and the American Flagg
costume will bring his symbol to the fans through these cards!"
states Dynamic Forces president Nick Barrucci. The limited
run of collectors editions boxes will be priced at $50.00
wholesale to retailers, but we ask the retailers to keep the
MSRP the same, to help raise even more money for the charities.
Dynamic
Forces is proud to add this to the $20,000.00 collected for
New York already.
Joe Michael
Straczynski has already donated his salary to charity from
writing Amazing Spiderman #36. Dynamic Forces is working with
Marvel and is in the process of raising over $50,000.00 between
all of our charity efforts -- between the signed Heroes book,
the Joe Jusko Captain America Lithograph and the Randy Queen
Incredible Hulk Lithograph and now with this new Top Cow project
with Joe Michael Straczynski and Top Cow, we will be able
to increase this amount again. We appreciate the fans and
retailers supporting us on this and purchasing the special
limited edition collectors boxes! We look forward to writing
the check to the charities!
Thanks
for your support!
Sincerely,
Nick Barrucci
President
