The charitable donations are being raised through various product bundles. The Walking Dead by Image Comics/Skybound Entertainment Bundle, Creator Spotlight on Jonathan Hickman, and the Image Comics Showcase Bundle contributed to the total amount number raised thus far for Binc Foundation. The Image Comics Showcase Bundle is still live, and its further proceeds will be donated to the Binc Foundation and The Hero Initiative, which supports comic book creators in medical or financial need.
Image Comics also recently shipped Negan Lives #1 to retailers free and without the burden of freight costs (see " 'The Walking Dead' One-Shot, 'Negan Lives #1' Free to Retailers July 1").Over $35,000 Raised for Traveling Stories; $4 million Raised Through a Joint Bundle
