Last Day for the Limited Edition Rewards!

Today is the last day to claim some of these limited edition rewards and add-ons through Reprinting The Legend of Jamie Roberts’ Kickstarter! If you need a breakdown of which rewards are expiring today, I wrote up a Kickstarter update that goes into more depth. (That post was published on the 11th, but the rewards expire today).

The patron-exclusive mini-print for the KickStarter is still a work in progress, but we’re getting there! Here’s a preview of that…

Ko-fi supporters will get the final render of this as a mini-print included with their Kickstarter Rewards when they back the campaign.

For Folks Who Backed New Punk Signal and Fwishi’shi…

Your rewards will be sent out either today or tomorrow! I tried to get UPS to pick up the packages from my place on Saturday, but UPS never came. 🙃 Once rewards are shipped, keep an eye on your inboxes for the tracking numbers. 

But for the folks who backed that campaign and have not backed Reprinting The Legend of Jamie Roberts yet… I will include this art in your rewards if you do.

Once again, today is the LAST DAY to claim the limited edition rewards on Reprinting The Legend of Jamie Roberts’ KickStarter! The campaign itself ends October 21st, but today is the last day for the limited edition stuff. So head on over to the campaign and check it out! 

If you’re broke, share the news far and wide with the link tinyurl.com/tlojr-reprint yo. 

That’s all for now. Thank you for your support!

NOW ON KICKSTARTER – Reprinting The Legend of Jamie Roberts

Jamie Roberts is not a boy or a girl – they are a PIRATE! Jamie and their two best friends, Thomas and Daniel, find an unfinished map during a pirate raid and decide to leave the seas to hunt for treasure!

But the land they have arrived in has many secrets, including the secrets kept by their new employer, Ragun Basho. Who was chasing after him? Why is he talking about dragons? And who are these people Jamie is seeing in their dreams?!

The answers are revealed in the first two volumes of The Legend of Jamie Roberts, capturing the lush, vibrant, Indigenous-inspired world of this swashbuckling adventure.

Fans of my work may be like, “Hold up. You did campaigns for volume 1 and volume 2. What’s going on?”

So here’s the short version: when I made volume 1, I worked with a comics printer that ruined the first run of books. I did manage to get reprints, but let’s just say it was the latest in a long list of issues I’ve had with them in the past. After what happened, I switched to a new printer for volume 2.

However, the second printer raised their prices without warning over the last few months. They also have a minimum order that makes things prohibitive for me, a person doing all of it solo. That left me searching for a new printer, which leads us to this campaign.

This campaign is to help fund a new print run with a NEW printer for The Legend of Jamie Roberts, volumes 1 and 2. 

It means new and improved quality paper! Vibrant colors! Better pricing! All to share the magical genderqueer adventure that is The Legend of Jamie Roberts with as many readers, new and old, as possible.

“But isn’t this a webcomic? That I can read online for free?” Yes!

“So why should I get these books?”

BECAUSE…

  1. Both books have specific pages redrawn and remade from the original web versions.
  2. These books have extra content the webcomic site does not have, like  bonus comics, sneak peeks at the comics-making process, and more!
  3. By purchasing these books, you’re helping to continue The Legend of Jamie Roberts as an ongoing comic project. Seriously, we’re very close to releasing volume 3 next year! I plan on making 5 volumes of The Legend and need support from readers like you to make it happen.

This campaign starts October 1 and ends October 21 at 11:59 pm EDT. There will be a 24-hour “Late Pledge” grace period, but Late Pledges have a late fee. Keep that in mind!

We also have new add-ons and new stretch goals – so even if you backed the previous campaigns, there’s something new for you to check out, including…

minicomics are available as add-ons! Minicomics include The Legend of Azu-mi, The Legend of Norsa, Legendary & Casual, and Ranki in Cosplay
stickers are also available as add-ons for this KickStarter! Stickers include Thomas, Jamie, and Daniel dressed as punks, Basho's twin in a crop top, and Jamie posing with their sword

So if you’re able to support The Legend, go to the campaign and pick the rewards that work best for you!

Broke? Share this campaign far and wide! Be sure to use the link tinyurl.com/tlojr-reprint. Shares help more than you know. 

That’s all for now. Thank you for your time and support!

You. Are. Awesome.
