Just noticed this and thought some people may be interested.

It appears that Palladium Books are having money problems at the moment. Something to do with embezzlement and a missing $850k. For full details have a read of the open letter from Kevin Siembieda:

Please Help Save Palladium from Going Under

As a fund raising excercise Palladium Books will be producing a special print drawn by Kevin Siembieda. The print be 11 x 14 inches and feature key characters from the Megaverse. Each print will be hand signed and numbered. For full details have a look at the above letter or visit the link below.

"A Megaverse® United" Print

For people that don't know, Palladium Books produce RPG titles such as Rifts, Heros Unlimited, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Robotech and Palladium Fantasy. A list of title can be found at RPG Complete: Palladium Megaverse

A good cause for all D&D and d20 GMs

Their supplements also translate quite easily into D&D3e or d20. And their ideas are far more creative than what I usually see in WotC's supplements, so I prefer to use Palladium's.

People who've worked with

People who've worked with Kevin Siembieda will tell you that Kevin was basically asking for this to happen with the very disrespectful way he treated his colleagues. The man is not a nice person.
