Green Lantern Member Card Leads 2011 CBLDF Member Incentives!

The CBLDF is pleased to announce our 2011 Membership Premium Program! This program is one of the easiest and most rewarding ways to support the Fund, with multiple donation choices to suit a variety of member needs.

Supporting the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund helps preserve comics as a vital medium for the next century. Everyone in the comics community, from fans to pros to retailers, has a vital interest in preserving the medium’s ability to grow, and by joining the CBLDF, you’d be helping protect First Amendment rights of the comics you love.

Joining the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund comes with a number of incentives, across these donation tiers, each with its own premiums and benefits. Of course, the number one benefit of membership is peace of mind. You’ll know that there’s someone at the other end of the phone when a retailer gets busted or an artist is brought up on charges. Become a member of the CBLDF and help preserve comics as a vital medium for the next century.
