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.

Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter 2

The epic Not-Safe.Space story continues with Part 2, and Scott requires funds to publish a print volume of _Not-Safe.Space_ Chapter 2.

This large-format, 48-page trade paperback is a must for fans of Eithne Lamdagan, aka The CUSH Queen, and her friends

The campaign begins Sunday, April 6 and concludes Tuesday, May 8.

Panel 3
Reggie, back in shirtsleeves, along with Guy and Bert, greet Captain Kruger and the Yeomen who had arrested Harris earlier.

Panel 4
The six Beta ships, now disarmed, rocketing away from Ceres.

Caption: The rest were sent back to Terra with their tails between their legs, just as Reggie had promised so many months before.
