Strip 225 -- First Seen: 2009-07-24
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.
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
Panel 1
Bert, Ernie and Tobi at the patio table. Bert is starting to get a bit exasperated. Tobi is holding his arms out, palms forward.
Bert: Yes, and all this is relevant how?
Tobi: Okay okay, here's the deal. The UW government hates my guts ...

Panel 3
Cut to, essentially, Bert's POV. Ernie is in the near left and Tobi towards the right, a bit farther away.

Tobi: What else could they say?
Tobi: I released all the hardware specs and software as open source.
Tobi: I did it simultaneously across the solar system, so nobody could bury it.
Panel 5
Looking over Tobi's shoulder towards the Brothers, who are looking thoughtful.
Tobi: It was a fait accompli.

Looking over Bert's shoulder at Tobi. Tobi is just sitting with his arms crossed.
Bert: ohhhhh.....
