Shout about it
Obviously the more people we can get to hear about this the better so thanks to everyone who is linking to this page, traffic is starting to grow.
If anyone has friends with media contacts it would great if we could get something in the uk press.. am curious to see what is in tomorrow's guardian comic DFC-wise.

.. and how can the DFC be saved?
Random House are looking to sell the title, and whilst the idea of a single wealthy benefactor coming to the rescue sounds great, it also sounds improbable in the current climate.... although with interest rates close to zero and the stock market tanking, you never know...
In any case, it seems unlikely that Random House is actively seeking a buyer.
A great alternative might be to galvanise the subscriber base of the DFC to get as many people as possible to know about it and, if they are interested, get them to pledge a small sum towards an eventual 'subscriber buy-out'.
I am not sure of the exact methodology of doing this but have seen it successfully used in other contexts.
