The Xeric Foundation, a private, nonprofit corporation established by Peter A. Laird, co-creator of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles , offers financial assistance to committed, self-publishing comic book creators and qualified charitable and nonprofit organizations. Among the recipients for the 2010 grant is Bryan G. Brown. His comic is titled First Fight and chronicles his personal experience of entering the MMA cage.

Comic memoirs are becoming more an more popular. I wonder how this one will do.
