Comics for troops!

Over on the 2000AD message board, there is a thread we'd like to draw your attention to.
One of the guys there, who has a wife currently serving in Afghanistan, is putting together loads of comics to send out to the men and women serving out there.

This is a great cause, and kudos to Matthew for putting this together.

If you want to help him out, either sign up to the board, or you can drop us a line and we'll put you in contact with him.
