Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!

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.

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.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
We are in the hearing room now, Pablo seated at his desk. We can see the backs of some of the audience's heads in the lower part of the panel.
Pablo: Before I get into my assessment, I'm going to read a quote by someone I have always liked.
Pablo: It's from George Polya, who was a professor of mathematics, but I think he would have made a great jurist.
Panel 2
Head-and-shoulders shot of Pablo in the lower left corner of the panel, to make room for large dialog balloons with the quote.
Pablo: 'Pedantry and mastery are opposite attitudes towards rules. To apply a rule to the letter, rigidly, unquestioningly, in cases where it fits and in cases where it does not fit, is pedantry.
Pablo 'To apply a rule with natural ease, with judgment, noticing the cases where it fits, and without ever letting the words of the rule obscure the purpose o the action or the opportunities of the situation, is mastery.'
Panel 3
Medium shot of Pablo at his desk.
Pablo: The Belt's case law is pretty clear on a matter like this: Emily must pay all of Anton's direct and indirect losses and expenses.

Panel 4
Waist-up shot of Emily, looking as if she's about to swoon.
Pablo (OP): If that takes fitting her with a track-and-disable collar while she works to pay off the debt, so be it.
