The Comic Book Diner’s John Gallagher posts:

Okay folks we are down to the wire– we have begged, pleaded, marketed, e-mailed, called friends,. family– but I guess I goofed up. Jamar, Rich and I were told for years that there weren’t enough kids graphic novels out there– fun, funny, something that makes kids excited to read. Was I wrong? Maybe everyone is all full up?

We just haven’t done a good job of making our case. So here is the message I am sending out to everyone– librarians, teachers, friends, etc., basically reminding folks of what we have done for others, and now we need help.

Librarians, Educators, Friends, Family, Lovers of literacy and creativity,

My name is John Gallagher, creator of the Buzzboy comics and I’m asking for your help in funding the “Comic Book Diner Project”, a 3 book set of all-ages Graphic Novels, by Rich Faber, Jamar Nicholas, and me. Each book is 96 pages, full color, and full of comic stories, how-to’s and drawing tutorials. Buzzboy, Roboy Red, and Leon: Protector of the Playground are the three books, and we are trying to pre-fund them through Kickstarter.Com– all you need is an Amazon account to sign up, but we also have other ways of helping organizations buy the books, at an educational discount. Buzzboy is the world’s coolest super sidekick. Roboy Red is the tale of a runaway robot. And Leon is about the world’s first latch key superhero. Together they make up almost 300 pages of action fun, and fantasy for an all-ages audience.
