One Dollar Sale Continues!

Hard to believe it, but Big Head Press published it's first novel, over 20 years ago. To commemorate our stubborn longevity, we continue to stubbornly offer each of our non serialized graphic novel stories for just one mere American dollar (plus shipping). Start your holiday shopping early and light up some body's mind with one or more of these titles.

Offer only available in the United States.

Kickstarter Success!

The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!

Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.

All of this should show up in June.

The Transcript For This Page

Strip 15
Nine panels
Panel 1
Guy, Fiorella and Babbette. A bit larger panel with some background re-establishing the scene, and having room for the EFT logo. It’s Fiorella’s turn to speak. Guy is leaning over a bit to whisper in Fiorella’s ear.

Fiorella: But shouldn’t you be in school?

Babbette: My mom educates me, but I also take classes at church and from tutors.

Guy (whispering to Fiorella): Home schooling, religious indoctrination – the UW has a lot of work to do out here.

Panel 2
Guy speaks to Babbette

Guy: Yes, Agent Guzmán, but why aren’t you in a government school?

Panel 3
Tight close-up on Babbette, looking bewildered

Babbette: Governments have schools?

Panel 4
Two-shot of Guy and Fiorella, startled to realize the implication of that last remark.

Guy: Er …

Fiorella: How about you direct us to a hotel? We need to sleep and clean up before we meet with representatives of your government.

Panel 5
Medium-shot of Babbette, brightening and gesturing over her shoulder

Babbette: There’s an excellent boarding house near-by. I’ll take you there! Please follow me.


Panel 6
Small panel. Babbette has turned and is leaning forward at an almost 30 degree angle.

Panel 7
Wide panel. Babbette has lanched herself and is gliding in a long arc several meters long and a few inches above the ground. Behind her are Guy and Fiorella, taken aback.

Panel 8
Medium shot of Babbette standing by her golf cart, looking back at the Terrans with tilted head, arched eyebrow – an 'are you coming or not' expression.
