Thingamaboob: Breast Cancer Comics

:: Posted by Bryan @ 5/14/2009 02:33:00 AM
As she discusses on her blog, cartoonist Sandra Bell-Lundy (Between Friends) has created a series of three Between Friends comics for the Canadian Cancer Society to help them promote their Early Detection campaign for breast cancer. The comics are flash-animated and were voiced by volunteers from Actra.

They are featured on the Canadian Cancer Society's "Thing-a-ma-boob" web site and can be sent as an e-greeting to remind women of the importance of regular mammogram screenings.

The strips have also been printed as a poster and used on display cases of "thing-a-ma-boobs" which are being sent to doctors' offices across Ontario. (Thingamaboobs are little gadgets that simply explain the importance of mammograms in early detection)
