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
Reggie walks out towards the homestead crater, passing the charred remains of Billy's sled. We're seeing him from behind. The sled remains are to his right, and there is a 100-meter-wide shallow crater in front of him.

No dialog.
Panel 2
Standing near the center of the crater now, Reggie looks upward.
No dialog.

Panel 3
Looking up past Reggie in the right foreground, we see the Shuttle from the Gamma Conqueror descending toward him. It's about twice the size of a Star Trek type shuttlecraft, but uglier. Instead of nacelles on the lower sides, there are four small thrusters mounted on rotatable gimbals. These are being used to control the descent.

No dialog.


Panel 4
The shuttle lands about 20 yards away from Reggie.
Reggie (thought): If the nuke is discovered too soon at least I can cost Harris a shuttle.
