FUNDING:
RESIST! Vol. 1 was able to expand beyond Gabe Fowler's original grant thanks to a generous donation from Mitch Berger and from thousands of supporters who sent in money or pre-ordered copies through our website. All of the time and labor that has gone into this project has been and continues to be offered on a volunteer basis. All of the artists have contributed their work without monetary compensation. ART: The first issue of Resist! includes art by cartoonists such as Alison Bechdel, Lynda Barry, and Roz Chast, as well as many others (some as young as 13!) who sent in work during our open call.
