Strip 461 -- First Seen: 2010-06-14
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.
Kickstarter successful and closed
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!
UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!
UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.
Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!
(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)
For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.
Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.
The Transcript For This Page
Panel 1
Large panel. Elevated view of a private Lunar colony. Essentially, a dozen Quonset huts and domes of varying sizes, some of them connected by above-ground sealed passageways (other passageways are underground). We can see a few ground vehicles of various sizes moving around.
Caption: 'Spanish Lookout' was the name of a Lunar Mennonite colony. It was a split-away group from the Mennonite enclave at Spanish Lookout in Belize.
Caption: Contrary to popular belief, not all Mennonites shun technology. The Belize colony, for example, specialized in auto parts and repair.
Caption: Their Lunar brethren preserved that tradition by specializing in repairing moon buggies, jump rockets, environmental maintenance units and the like.
Panel 2
Medium shot of the same emergency vehicle we saw in the previous strip, flying about 500 meters over the lunar-scape, on rockets in its underside and backside(the wheels are for traversing short distances on the surface).
Caption: the Lunar Mennonites operated a free emergency rescue and disaster relief service much like the Mennonite Disaster Service organization in North America. Even though other Lunar settlers jokingly referred to the colony as 'Moonnonites,' they actually had a great deal of respect for them.
Caption: Everyone knew that if disaster struck, they could always count on help from their 'Moonnonite' neighbors. So when the Tower's emergency alarms broadcast distress signals to all Lunar settlements, the Spanish Lookout Search and Rescue service was one of the first responders.
