Third Annual Jawiin Comic Drive for Soldiers Kicks Off!

DC All Access host Jason Inman has joined forces with Operation Gratitude to give comic books to US military members through the Third Annual Jawiin Comic Book Drive.

Operation Gratitude sends 250,000+ individually addressed care packages to Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines deployed overseas, to their children left behind, and to New Recruits, Veterans, First Responders, Wounded Heroes and their Caregivers. Each package contains food, hygiene products, entertainment and handmade items, as well as personal letters of support.

The Jawiin Comic Book Drive has collected over 22,000 comics for Operation Gratitude in the past two years. This year, from November 1st through the 30th, Jason is looking to send another 22,000 comics for our service members. DC Publisher Dan Didio has already donated 10,000 comics to get the drive going!

If you’d like to donate any of new or good condition comic books, follow the steps below! Feel free to include letters or postcards along with your comic donations!

1. Fill out the donation form at https://www.operationgratitude.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Donor-Form_2017_OCT.pdf

Put “Jawiin Comic Drive for Soldiers” in Group Title and the comic drive email on the form. The rest of the form is pretty self-explanatory.

2. Box and ship the comics and the donation form to

Operation Gratitude

21100 Lassen St.

Chatsworth, CA 91311

Please include a donation form in EVERY box even if they’re part of the same donation. Sometimes cartons don’t all arrive at the same time.

3. Send a picture of your comics and the number of books you are donating to jawiincomicdrive@gmail.com.

(If you don’t send your number to the email, they will have an inaccurate count and the drive could fail. Let’s get these soldiers some comics for the new year!)

Let’s see how many comics we Geekscapists can muster!
