Generous Star Trek fans!

René enjoyed an amazing weekend October 19-21, 2018 at Destination Star Trek in Birmingham, United Kingdom. He drew over 250 of his Odo’s Bucket cartoons for generous fans who donated thousands of euros to support the worldwide, life-saving work of Médecin San Frontières/Doctors Without Borders!

An overall review of the convention has been posted on the StarTrek.com website. Enjoy!

Spring 2018 auction success!

In honor of René’s upcoming June 1 birthday, and to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the premiere of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, in late April we ran an eBay auction of an assortment of collectibles, some from René’s personal collection and others donated by fans, all to support the life-saving work of Médecin San Frontières/Doctors Without Borders.

Thanks to René’s generous fans, we raised over $600 for MSF/DWB with this auction. We truly appreciate all of you who participated!
