Humanoids Raises Funds for Ukraine with Makhno: Ukranian Freedom Fighter
Humanoids has announced that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of their upcoming graphic novel Makhno: Ukranian Freedom Fighter will be donated to the Ukrainian nonprofit organization Razom, which supplies medical aid to Ukrainian fighters on the front lines. Makhno: Ukranian Freedom Fighter by Philippe Thirault and Roberto Zaghi is the true story of the infamous Ukrainian anarchist and revolutionary Nestor Makhno.
In early 20th century Ukraine, anarchist Nestor Makhno, the son of peasants, was among the most heroic and colorful figures of the Russian Revolution, encouraging his people to find and embrace social and economic self-determination. Makhno is the story of a military strategist who tirelessly defied both the Bolsheviks and the Germans to protect his homeland.
In support of the people of Ukraine, a portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated directly to Ukrainian relief efforts through the nonprofit organization Razom. “In the spirit of Nestor Ivanovich Makhno himself, a courageous freedom fighter who took more than once to the front lines of combat, Humanoids has chosen to donate to the organization working most directly with the freedom fighters of today,” said Humanoids Publisher Mark Waid.
Makhno: Ukranian Freedom Fighter is published through Humanoids’ Life Drawn imprint and out now.
