I ordered mine on May 15th and I haven't got it yet... Should I be worried? :(
I hope it comes soon, but I won't know if it does because I'll be away all week starting tomorrow.

Send Giz an email with the details you ordered with, hopefully she'll be able to track it down for you.

BPRMedia.com has finally gotten their main site up and running. They asked me to write some reviews -- so I did.

I was wondering if you might consider releasing an ebook version.

The manga format works reall well with ebook readers, and being able to buy online and get it automatically without shipping would be nice. And of course, there is the fact that you'd be able to reduce the price as there would be no printing or shipping costs.
The whole making process however would probably take a long time, especially if you want to create files for every type of book reader (although there might be way to just convert them). That's why I'm just pitching the idea, wondering if you've thought about it. To other people here, would you be interested in getting it? Obviously that much work would be too much if nobody wants to get it. On the other hand, if they do want to get it, then you can have unlimited supplies.

If you're worried about people sharing the book illegally, you can go to the main websites, and they can usually convert your book into their protected formats. At least I know Sony can.
There is a program called Calibre that can convert cbr and cbz archives into epub and lrf, too (and can optimise the lrf for the Sony Readers, at least the 6-inch ones).

Anyway, I was just wondering about that since I was thinking of making my own out of the strips that are online (would I be allowed to do that by the way? I can keep it for personal use if you ask me to) and I just realised you could actually sell these (with the bonus stuff from the book and such in them).

We are looking into digital distribution. Like you said, a format for each reader is a bit of a pain. We know there's a new thing called LongBox that's comin' that might be cross platform. In any case, the iphone/android and the kindle/sony reader will probably happen sometime in the new year.

In regards to saving the comics that are online, for personal use it's fine. You can't however sell or distribute them.

I just got mine in the mail today! Unfortunately it came out of envelope with a crease on the backcover. It wasn't folded over inside the envelope, and the envelope package itself wasn't creased, so I dunno what happened. It's cool though, because I bet I'll eventually read it so much I'd mess it up sooner or later.

I read the whole volume in a single sitting and was laughing out loud all over again. The extra story was hilarious, I like the "emo" hair look on Gary.
Can't wait for volume 2!

the offending crease, kinda hard to see in the picture. It runs through Didi all the way down

Maybe it was a defective book. We try to check them all, but it's possible that one slipped in. I'll gladly send you another free of charge. Just email me your info. :)
