Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.
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
Terry and Leon still drinking coffee and conversing in the living room.
Leon: We have one bachelor, Señor Moisés Francisco Nassif Gonzalez.
Terry: Who? I never heard that name before.
Panel 2
Close-up of Leon, non-chalant..
Leon: Oh, he's our blackmailer.
Terry (OP): Blackmailer?!!
Panel 3
Portrait of Cisco, a slightly-overweight Lebanese and Cuban mix, bearded with curly hair and light eyes.
Leon (Narrating): Yeah, 'Cisco' is sort of an interesting guy. His father was Lebanese and moved to Colombia when Lebanon was self-destructing.
Leon (Narrating): There, he met and married Cisco's mom. Lebanese and Latin seems to be a good combination. After all, it gave us Salma Hayek and Shakira.
Panel 4
Small panel. Terry looking incredulous.
Terry: Blackmailer?
Panel 5
Leon sips his coffee.
Leon: Cisco's dad was a very successful businessman—real estate, communications, transportation, cattle, you name it.
Panel 6
A younger Cisco, thinner, standing next to a popular sports car with his arms around two bimbo-type women.
Leon (Narrating): At an early age, Cisco followed in his father's footsteps and became a very wealthy man in his own right. For years, he was a playboy and spent his money on boy's toys—yachts, race cars and high performance aircraft.
Panel 7
Leon speaks matter-of-factly. We can see Terry's face from the side, still looking incredulous and frustrated.
Leon: He's quite a talented pilot, by the way.
Terry: Blackmailer?
