Mass Transit
You guys, I have something to ask you and I don’t really like asking it, but here goes: I’m in a very huge down money-wise right now. I was supposed to be working on a big contract in October, which got pushed to November, which then got cancelled. I had other work opportunities which also got nuked before I could even start. I’ve already spent long hours spanned on multiple days trying to find work, but freelance work isn’t the easiest thing to find. Bottom line is, I am very, very broke.
What I’m saying is this: if you enjoy this comic, if you’ve been enjoying it for a while, please consider donating by clicking on the yellow “Donate” button on the right. For any donation of $5 CAD or more, I’ll send you an original Boumeries comic! I do all of the comics on paper with a brush pen (and not directly on the computer like some might think). Here’s a photo to show you what they look like (the text is missing on the photo, but all comics do have text):
I’m not asking for much — $5 is not a lot, but every little bit helps. I have almost 200 strips to give away like that. If you want one in particular, be sure to mention its title in the special instructions when donating. Oh, and don’t forget to give me your address so that I can send the comic your way!
The other way you could encourage me is by buying the Boumeries book. I’ve put a lot of time and money in this, it’s truly a labour of love.
Please spare a few bucks for a struggling artist! If you can’t, please help by spreading the word. I’m grateful for any kind of support I can get. Thank you so much!
What the..?? Is this because you’re short, or just the overall chaos in subways??
I’m not sure if I can help with money, even if it’s my own, because my parents hold it all. They’re pretty strict when it comes to buying things, and a comic book or someone over the internet is definitely not on their list of “okay things to spend cash on.” I’ll work on convincing them, because you’re truly an inspiration and hero of mine.
As for spreading the word, you can count on me! ;)
I have no idea! She was just a pain in the butt. I don’t think being in the subway during rush hour necessarily means you’ll have people reading the newspaper on your head.
And thanks darling — don’t worry if your parents don’t let you spend money for me, if you can’t help it, you can’t help it. I’m grateful already for trying. :) Thanks~~
…why did I think she was on a bus?
Je vais surement t’envoyer des sous, ca va me faire plaisir. Je lis des affaires depuis plus de deux ans, ca serait ben la moindre des choses.
Je voulais te demander… seras tu au salon du livre? C’est unrelated mais la question m’a poppé dans tête hier une fois que j’étais couchée… haha.
Bref, je vais aller browser tes comics!
euh… je lis *tes affaires hahaha
Ohhh merci <3
Mais, non, je serai pas au Salon du livre (ça aurait été ben trop malade)! Par contre je vais être à Expozine. C'est moins glamour, mais bon. ;)
J,demande car j’y vais demain avec des amis et mon petit terrible two sur pattes. Je sais qu’il va y avoir Iris et Zviane et j’me demandais… Ben coudon! :D
J’vais voir si je peux prendre le bouquin… est ce que ca t’aide plus si on prend le livre ou si on fait un don volontaire?
C’est équivalent. J’dois écouler les livres aussi… j’suis heureuse peu importe <3
I’ve never commented before, but I’ve been reading your comic for a long while now, and it’s one of my favourites. You have a very cool style and I’m glad to support you and your art however I can! Three cheers for Boum!

I’ve been trying to reply to this and it seemingly never appeared: THANK YOU SO MUCH!
she needs a good dose of FALCON PAAAWWWNCH!!.
i would send all my money, if i had any… im in your same situation or worse maybe (stupid highschool retaining my certificate, without it i cant get the work i want ¬¬)
Aw, hang in there!
Just donated and bought the book!
I have been broke and know that everyone needs a helping hand – just keep making me laugh!
Thank you thank you thank you! I’ll sort all the emails out and I’ll get back to you soon enough. You’re awesome.
I totally understand the uncertainty of freelance work. It’s being good to me at the moment, so I’m sharing the love. This is the first time I’ve ever donated to support a comic – I hope you make it through the rough spot!
Thank you SO MUCH. It means a lot to me, especially me being the first and all. I’m so privileged. <3
I sent you 30CAD, it’s everything I can give you right now. I hope ya’ll get super rich soon!
Thank you so much!! It’s more than I could hope for <3
Donated after seeing a post on Ross Campbell’s D.A. blog. Hope it wasn’t too late.

Thank you so, so much. I have no words to express my gratitude!
