We’re delighted to welcome back Ken “Value Added” Steacy, from Ken Steacy Publishing, to Desert Bus 2018.
If you’re new to Desert Bus, Ken Steacy has been supporting us for practically forever. He is a member of the Canadian Comic Book Creator’s Hall of Fame, won a Shuster Award, and he’s Alex’s dad!
His nickname of “Value Added” came about because of all the wonderful contributions and time he has spent with us, and for the children on Desert Bus. Every year with Ken has been full of surprises and delight and we’re sure this year will be no different.
We thank Ken Steacy Publishing for their continued support of Desert Bus for Hope.
Ken “Value Added” Steacy is in the building! And with that, we’re ready for a night of live auctions and giveaways.
If you’ve been with us when Ken has visited us before, you may well know that there are a LOT of things happening. So, for the next couple of hours, check out the live feed at twitch.tv/desertbus or our Twitter feed at twitter.com/desertbus for the latest updates!
And… don’t forget: to bid on Live Auctions, you’ll need a Donor Account, a Twitch account, and you’ll need to link them together here on desertbus.org. If you haven’t done this yet, you’ll want to get that done soon because we have some AMAZING prizes incoming!

Ken Steacy will be visiting Desert Bus for Hope 2018
on Monday, November 12th at 7:00pm PST!
Known around Desert Bus as Ken “Value Added” Steacy (thanks to his legacy of creating some of the most exciting live auctions we’ve ever seen), Ken decided at age eleven to become a professional comic book writer/artist, a dream he realized in 1974. Since then, he has chronicled the exploits of Spider-Man, Harry Potter, and the Star Wars gang, to name but a few. In addition to creating his own intellectual property, he has collaborated with Harlan Ellison, Dean Motter, and Douglas Coupland. The recipient of an Eisner and an Inkpot award, Ken was inducted into the Joe Shuster Awards Hall of Fame in 2009, a lifetime achievement award honouring Canadian comic book creators for their contributions to the industry. Alongside his wonderful wife, graphic novelist Joan Steacy, Ken is currently teaching Comics & Graphic Novels in a program they created at Camosun College here in Victoria.
