Mine! : a comics collection to benefit Planned Parenthood
Created by ComicMix, LLC
Planned Parenthood, and the millions of people they help each year, need every bit of help they can get. Mine! a comics collection where the proceeds go to Planned Parenthood. From stories about everyday people to fantastic adventures, Mine! celebrates and defends Planned Parenthood in a book that can live on in our homes, libraries and the halls of Congress.
Mine! features stories about trailblazing women like Margaret Sanger and Emma Goldman, civil rights leaders like Gloria Richardson, a person's first time going to a Planned Parenthood, debunking myths about sex, STI screenings, HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention, as well as fantastical stories with superheroes, Greek mythology, and a future both with and without Planned Parenthood. There is something for everyone in Mine!

Hey Everyone,
We hit another milestone today! Over $30,000 raised meaning we've raised over 60% of the funds in just 12 days! We still have 19 more days to go and we're not slowing down!
We want to thank all of you for sharing, pledging, tweeting, and showing your support. It means the world to us.
More art is coming in as well, so we wanted to show you. Below is an illustration of an Emma Goldman action figure for a fake ad you'll be seeing in Mine! Emma Goldman is just one of the many incredible and important feminist icons that we'll be highlighting in this book.
Thank you all again for helping us start this week off strong. We're looking forward to giving you more updates and showing you all more art as it comes in.
All the best,
Joe and Molly
