Worldbuilders, the nonprofit organization founded by Patrick Rothfuss, is continuing to find more innovative ways to raise money for Heifer International. That's the organisation that provides livestock and training around the world in areas of extreme hunger and poverty.

And people can donate via one of their favourite comic books – and get a chance to be in it. In one way or another.





Every $10 gets you one lottery ticket to name an inmate and the nature of their crime in an upcoming issue of Bitch Planet if you click this way. 32 supporters so far.

Or a ticket to name a sex act in Sex Criminals if you click this way. Again, 32 supporters so far.

Appear, with your name, in the final issue of Revival if you click this way. 15 supporters so far.

Or get killed in Rat Queens if you click this way. 82 supporters so far.

Put it this way, the odds at they stand, with 12 days to go, look pretty damn good.

It is also the best Christmas present for someone relatively geeky I can think of. If they win, they will love you forever.

And if not, they know the money went to buy the likes of like honeybees ($30), fruit tree saplings ($60), goats ($120), ducks ($20), and heifers ($500). Might make for a better end to 2016.

Lots of websites will be doing Geek Gifts For Christmas. I think we'll be reminding you of this.
