Sexcuse me, bohabs, but say it loud with me so everyone can hear it — FUCK CANCER. It’s a brutal scourge and unfortunately, another one of our own has been affected. This time, it’s GWAR founding member and human slave to The Sexecutioner, Chuck Varga.
It’s a shitty situation and we don’t know what he’s been actually diagnosed with, but cancer is cancer. He’s one of the approximately two million Americans that will be diagnosed with cancer in 2026. But what his friends in GWAR have is the platform for some potential good. Hence the beginning of a nationwide blood donation campaign that’s been launched in Varga’s honor.
GWAR is asking fans, bohabs, and everyone with the ability to understand this article to go out and donate blood. All you gotta do is head to a blood bank near you, register as donors or give in Chuck’s name. Do that and you’ll get a free exclusive t-shirt designed by Varga.
Aside from his time with GWAR, Varga is a sculptor, set designer, and rock artist by trade. His work has directly affected GWAR’s theatrics not only in the sculpts and art he’s done, but he’s also co-founded the band’s Slave Pit Studios in Richmond, Virginia back in the 1980s.
Varga eventually left GWAR in 1997 to pursue a career on Broadway, film, and television up in New York City. Though he would sometimes perform with the band over the years, he ultimately retired from that part of his life in 2021.
So if you have the ability to donate, consider doing so. You won’t just be helping Varga, but the millions of people affected by cancer, too.
