Thanks for reading, everyone.

Sorry there is not going to be a book or anything like that, but if you would like to commission a sketch card, I've set up a paypal button at the bottom of this post. Put what character you would like in the message to seller box. apparently there is no box, so say it in the comments or an email. I'll update later in the day with examples.

Thanks again everyone, it has been a fun and educational experience getting to make this comic, I feel lucky that I got to make this story and share it with you guys. I appreciate your attention and support, & look forward to whatever it is that is going to happen next.








you can donate whatever amount you'd like - I'd appreciate at least enough to cover postage and materials. The more money you donate, the longer I'm going to spend on your card, of course, but I can do a lot for 10 dollars. This is mainly to give me an excuse to draw these characters a couple more times before the end, so it's no big deal either way. I am going to close this offer at the end of the week though, so click accordingly. Thanks again everyone, you are all the best.

I can't tell you how thrilled I was to open my friends page and have the top line be "Busted Wonder - Completed!" Off to read the thing straight through.

Holy cow, you're done! Hooray! And congratulations on finishing! It was an ambitious project, and it must feel great to be done, but maybe a little sad?

When I hit the donate thingy, I didn't get a place to put a message. Maybe I did something wrong, I don't know... Draw your favorites, though, draw what you want. (Or maybe grown-up Kelly waving to young Kelly from far away, and the sword swallowers were pretty cool and looking back I just noticed that her hand is burnt, but in the end, you're the artist, and I will be thrilled however you decide to go.) (Oh, and I'm pretty sure you can figure it out from the address and so on, but my address is in Santa Cruz...)

Hm, recently I was talking with friends about art for tattoos... Maybe that would be a cool commission, too... I'll have to think about that some.

Ah HA, and FINALLY we know why it's called "Busted Wonder." I'd been trying to figure that out since the beginning!

Lovely work. Just reread it from the start, and thought that you and Keiron created something quite special. Best of luck with your future endeavours.

Lee.

I finally got to see the ending! I didn't expect it to be bittersweet, which I suspect is a sign of good writing. And great art - I love the wonder you created with it. :)

BW could be used in the official definition of Bittersweet i think. Thank you for reading and always being so supportive over the years, I really appreciate it!

Cool - I like it. Question: Is there a page 52? I don't get an image for that page...

Thanks for the ride!

Hmm, that is odd. ::goes away and monkeys with it::

It shows up in Firefox but not in Explorer. I wonder why only that page does this?

wow. That was a great ride! Thank you for a wonderful tale. I particularly like Astley's little ringside diatribe. Reminds me of the scene in V for Vendetta when V infiltrates the TV station and has his little talk.

And I like the fact that you don't have them say what they are outright, even to the end; you give the audience enough credit to understand from the cutoff quote and their final appearance. THank you for treating me like I have a brain.

I wish there was some way to put this in a print version. I would happily put that on my shelf. This is the kind of work that comics needs more of.

thank you so much for your kind words! I hope that I get to do more work in comics, and eventually make something that can get put on a shelf!

Awesome. I'm so thrilled to have been able to watch this story unfold (for how long now?! I don't remember!) Beautiful, sweet, and uplifting... I have always "seen" this book in the format of European BDs and it's a shame that's not in its future.

but... Thank you. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful and magical story. I never knew where it was going but thoroughly enjoyed the ride. The story as is may be done, but I know it will follow me around for a long time to come!
