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
A futuristic small airplane – make it a twin-engine propeller craft, with a large transparent canopy over the main fuselage (giving it a futuristic look). It's actually a VTOL craft; have the engines mounted so that they are capable of rotating 90 degrees. Inside the canopy are seats for six, (three rows of two), and the first four are occupied by Nisa (in the pilot position), Bert in the co-pilot seat, Mac and Ernie behind them.

Nisa: There aren't many roads on The Little Prince yet, so this VTOL plane is the easiest way to give tours.

Panel 2
Closer in on the cockpit, the plane banks a bit so we can see a large section of landscape spread about 2500 feet below. It's hilly grassland, with a very narrow river meandering through.

Mac: We've already started bringing in water from the iceberg you brought us.

Mac: Eventually we'll have 30 square kilometers of lakes, 180 sq. km of salt-water ocean.

Panel 3
View from inside the cabin. We can see Bert and Nisa in the front but the focus is on Ernie and Mac behind them. Mac is reaching across to lay her hand on Ernie's which is on his arm-rest. Bert and Nisa are glancing back towards them, with knowing smiles.


Ernie: Hmmm. If my math's right, you won't be needing any more ice deliveries.

Mac: I'm sure we can think of another reason for you to visit again.
