Make a donation and read the entire story right away!
March 20th, 2008
Why wait until December? Read the whole comic book now!
Make a donation of at least $15 and you can read all of “Hereville: How Mirka Got Her Sword!” right away (well, in a week or so, postal service allowing). This comic is 57 pages long (not including covers, title page, and stuff like that) and in color. It’s printed on a pretty heavy stock, and is about six inches wide and nine inches high.
Why buy the comic? Can’t I just read it for free online?
Yes you can! This comic book is being serialized online here at hereville.com. At the current once-a-week posting rate, it will be completely posted by the end of December 2008. You are more than welcome to read the entire comic that way.
This is a “reward” for people who help support “Hereville” with a $15 donation — they get to read the comic early, if they want to. But everyone gets to read it eventually.
Does this mean Hereville will end after 57 pages?
Definitely not! The current storyline is 57 pages long, and is a complete story with an ending. But that’s not the end of Hereville. I plan to be creating new “Hereville” stories for years to come.
Can I get you to do a sketch in my copy?
If you donate $30 or more, I’ll also create an original, one-of-a-kind sketch on the title page for you. You can click here to see examples of what these drawings look like. Choosing this option will add several days to how long it takes me to mail your copy, obviously.
Whether or not you pay for a sketch, I’ll be happy to sign it to whomever you’d like.
How to donate.
You can donate either through PayPal or through Amazon.com — click on the links in the sidebar to the right. After you’ve made a donation, this page will tell you what to do to get your thank-you gift.
Thanks!

Go Barry!
FYI, the paypal link above doesn’t work, but the one to the right does.

Thanks for letting me know! I got rid of the one below.

It’d be cool if we could buy the printed copy now and the PDF was included, so we could read the whole thing now but get the printed copy when it’s ready.
(If you’d be up for this please email me, so I don’t have to remember to re-check this page, thanks!)

Is there any way I can ask my local comic store to order it for me? That way I get it and they get to know it exists and there is someone who will buy this kind of comic from them.

Emily, because this is an extremely small self-published run (first printing: 100 copies), it’s not affordable for me to go through stores and distributors. Maybe that’ll change sometime in the future.
Sorry to disappoint, but I hope you’ll consider buying it directly from me anyway. :-)

absolutely! I told the guy about it anyway and he seemed interested and said he’d check it out.

How much would it cost to get a paper copy shipped to the UK?

I think it costs about $2 American more to ship to the U.K.. I’m not sure how long it takes, though.

Finally…an Orthodox Little Lulu! ;>) I can’t wait to read this!
(The Paypal link is working fine.)
