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. To the left, we see Norman and the girls from behind, looking out the window. To the right, the Sun is 3/4 obscured by the Earth's silhouette. The Earth's disc is surrounded by a thin bright ring that is its atmosphere being illuminated by the Sun. (Remember the Sun's disk is about ¼ the apparent size of the Earth's disc.)

Norman: Look, it's starting.

Panel 2
Reverse angle, Norman and the girls looking out through the window. We see a reflection in the glass of the totally eclipsed Sun, its corona streaming around Earth's disc. Inside the apartment the lighting is subdued, so the three characters are softly back-lit.

Caption: 'I gotta admit, it was an impressive sight.'

Panel 3
Side shot focusing on Robyn inside the apartment, putting her hand on the window glass, which is starting to fog. We can see Norman's hand on her shoulder.

Caption: 'As the Earth's shadow fell across us, I touched the window and could feel it rapidly cooling.'
