Roger Slifer update
Comic book writer, editor and colorist Roger Slifer was struck by a hit-and-run driver in Santa Monica, Calif., on June 23. Police still have not located a suspect, but are on the lookout for a white 4-door sedan with a sunroof. Anyone with information can call the Santa Monica Police Department at 310-458-8495.
Roger was moved to Barlow Respiratory Hospital on Friday, July 27. He still cannot breathe on his own, but Barlow is a hospital that specializes in respiratory issues. The hope is in 3-6 weeks, he'll be able to start breathing on his own. If and when sufficient progress is made, he could be ready for rehab in 3-6 months.
Meanwhile, artist Tone Rodriguez has contributed an amazing Lobo pinup currently being auctioned via eBay to help pay for Roger’s care.

Bravo! That's a priceless pin-up and I love the dialog! Hope it turns up the crum!
Is there a better publicity photo of a White 4-Door Sedan that might be posted to give us a better idea of what we're looking for? I'm thinking while the comics community will respond to posters with Lobo, a photo of the car might be recognised by family or friends in the Southern California area and produce more leads.
