A portion of the sales of the Bartkira Nuclear Edition and original artwork in this exhibition will be going to two different charities; Naka-Kon, a charity for Katsuhiro Otomo's home prefecture of Miyagi which was decimated during the 2011 Tohuko tsunami, and Save The Children, a favorite charity of Simpsons co-creator Sam Simon. Simon was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2012 and has left a sizeable chunk of his fortune to the charity.
