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
On the Bridge of the Gamma Conqueror, the Weapons Officer looks over towards Admiral Harris with a concerned expression. Harris looks forward with eyes narrowed and jaw set.

Harris: Complete the firing sequence.

Panel 2
In the cafe, looking at Billy in the comm screen over Emily's shoulder.
Emily: Quit fooling around, Billy.

Billy: I'm not! It's ---

Panel 3
As close in on the screen as you can get. Billy is being boiled alive in the energy beam fluctuation. Make this as grizzly as you can imagine, pull out all the stops – I want an image that will haunt readers in their nightmares.

Billy: EEEEEAAAAAGGGHHH!


Panel 4
Reverse view. Emily has fallen back in shock into Babbette's arms, who is shocked enough herself. Emily still holds her comm-arm up shakily, the screen now a blank white.
No dialog.
