Support Brandon's Fight Against Cancer

On May 12th, our friend and the heart and soul of Altered State Comics was admitted to the hospital with intense abdominal pain. After a series of tests, doctors discovered a mass in his abdomen. While surgery successfully removed the growth, it was confirmed to be malignant. Further tests revealed that the cancer had spread to his lymph nodes.

Brandon now faces a challenging road ahead, including chemotherapy treatments that will require strength, time, and of course the occasional break from the day-to-day operations of Altered State (even though he'll still make himself work more than he needs to).

Why We Need Your Help

Brandon isn’t just a business owner. He’s the face you see every day when you walk into Altered State Comics. For the past four years, he’s poured his heart into making our shop a haven for fans of comics, wrestling, music, and movies. He’s not just the guy behind the counter—he’s the reason our dream exists.

But with treatment on the horizon, Brandon will be unable to work the same long hours he’s always given so selflessly. And as a small business owner, any time away from the store is a financial hit for him and his family.
