Seth donates original X-Men art for charity auction

Comic creator Seth has donated a really fun and off-the-wall (for a Seth drawing, anyway) X-Men drawing to the Doug Wright Awards for Canadian Cartooning:



The organizers of The Doug Wright Awards for Canadian Cartooning are pleased to announce the auction of a one-of-a-kind piece of original art by Canadian designer and cartoonist Seth to help raise funds for the 2006 edition of the awards.

Considered one of the great cartoonists of his generation, Seth agreed to lend his distinctive style to the superhero genre as a special favour to the 2nd Annual Wright Awards. The result is a surprising re-interpretation of one of the comic world's most endearing superhero teams: The X-Men.

The Doug Wright Awards were established in 2005 to spotlight the wide array of talented cartoonists working across Canada. The pre-eminent awards recognizing the art of graphic novels and comics, The Wrights are named in honour of Doug Wright (1917-1983) whose humourous strip Doug Wright's Family graced newspapers and magazines across Canada for nearly 35 years.

The auction begins Monday, April 17 on eBay. Link via Drawn!
