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

Panel 1
Wide panel, establishing shot: in the Water Bros. Cafe. It's a slow time of day; Babbette the Elder has gone on an errand, Emily Rose is in charge, Babbette the Younger is hanging out as it's a slow time for her business, too. Both of them are at the Cashier station, trying not to be too obvious about the fact that they're watching one of the only three customers in the cafe: a 15-year-old, small and rather scruffy looking girl, with straight, very black hair, light-tan skin and dark, Indian eyes, who we will shortly learn is Robyn. Robyn is seated at one of the tables, not far from the exit door.

Emily (sotto voce, to Babbette): Terry?

BtY: Obviously.

Panel 2
Two-shot of Emily and Babbette:

BtY: Refugee?

Emily: She's got the look.


Panel 3
Medium shot of Robyn, at the table. She's glancing sideways at the Cashier stand as she wolfs down her food.

Emily (OP): Runner?

BtY: Maybe. Looks like she hasn't eaten in days.
