What is Joseph and Yusra? (◡‿◡✿)
Joseph and Yusra is a webcomic about a Jewish boy and Muslim girl who become best friends through telepathy. However as their powers develop they get pressured to get involved in the Palestinian Israeli conflict when they just want to live normal lives. I would go into more details but you can read the webcomic for free on my website. I'm about 400 pages in so it's a good read.

What's the Kickstarter for if it's free? ∩(︶▽︶)∩
1. It would be nice to have hard copies available to I can mail them out worldwide.
2. The hard copies will be different from what's for free. Often I go in and polish up the art, add extra pages, tweak dialogue a little, and most importantly fix typos.

Risks and challenges Learn about accountability on Kickstarter
Risks and challenges when printing comics is always having the printing company print them on time. As for the comic itself, everything is already finished and ready to be printed from issues 13-18 and issue 1.So there isn't much if anything to be waiting on, just funding.
I have the comic backed up on dropbox and external incase something tragic ever happens to my computer.
FAQ
-
believe it or not I have about 27 half way made (I stuff them already). I just need to pick out a fabric and sew on the eyes and mouth. Also that's why the anticipated date when it might be ready is in February - March.
-
They are just the ones listed, there is a gap between issues 2-12 because they need to be redrawn and are not available at the moment.

Well I am funded way beyond I imagined ;___; I'm so happy. I don't have anything else I can possibly do. I can only draw so fast so I can't promise new comics, and it doesn't make sense spending it on anything else expensive. ^_^ I decided to print some charms I will giving to those who donated $10.00 and above. Any super extra funds, I will put away to help fund as I put more books out not listed here.

For donating that much why should I charge you for shipping ;__;
