Strip 735 -- First Seen: 2011-06-29
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.
Kickstarter successful and closed
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!
UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!
UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.
Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!
(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)
For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.
Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.
The Transcript For This Page
Panel 1
Tall panel. Several of the Scouts, carrying fairly large ruck-sacks, are filing by Bert, who is checking their names on a list displayed on an electronic tablet (a bit smaller than an iPad) that he's holding.
Caption: And so, by launch day all 23 Space Scouts had their parental permissions arranged and presented themselves at the space-port, bearing packs filled with gear that the Guzmáns had designated.
Panel 2
Large panel, establishing the exterior shot of Sweet Liberty, resting on her landing struts on a tank-treaded platform just outside the space station. (The platform is for taxiing ships between the station and the landing/launch pad, located a safe distance away.) An enclosed gangway leads from the station to an access hatch on the ship, half-way along her hull. Here and there are little recesses in which reside 3-meter long, boom-like objects that might be laser cannon. She is larger than Little Toot, about 40 meters from nose to her five thruster nozzles, about 20 meters at her widest cross-section, and built for a variety of uses – mining, hauling, pleasure-cruising, and fighting. She looks sleek but also robust.
Caption: The trip to the planetoid – computed at about 80 centimes – would have been very uncomfortable for 25 people in a smaller boat, but the Brothers Guzmán had chosen Sweet Liberty in part for her roominess.
Caption: Though the ship had six staterooms and a captain's cabin, those were off limits to the gender-mixed Crew of Space Scouts. Everyone would bunk in hammocks strung up in the ship's common area.
