Comic artist Norm Breyfogle suffered a stroke this month, and after a week in the ICU was discharged to a nursing home. His left side (he’s left handed) was affected and he will require daily therapy to try to bring back his ability to function on that side.
Family members have organized an online fundraiser for his expenses. Breyfogle had no medical insurance, has major hospital bills, and faces the cost of the nursing home as well. The fundraising goal is $200,000.
Breyfogle is best known for his runs on the Batman character in Detective Comics, Batman, and Shadow of the Bat in the late 80s and early 90s, and the recent digital-first title Batman Beyond (see "DC Goes Digital First").
