Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

On Their Way....

This is a message for the IGG QV9 backers! For those of you who ordered physical perks, they are on their way via USPS. For those of you who selected one or more of the PDF perks, you should have received an email from DriveThruComics.com. That email contains links to the vouchers you need to download your copy of the PDF you requested.

If you haven't seen it yet, be sure to check your spam folder. If you still can't find the email from DriveThruComics, let us know and we'll get the links you need.

Signing and Shipping

Scott has finished autographing all the books, and we've started shipping them out. Your physical perks should show up in the next week or so (might be a bit longer for international shipments). We expect to send out vouchers (via email) to those who wanted the PDF e-books.

Once again, many thanks to our backers. Stand by for further updates.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Wide panel. On the street in downtown Ceres City. In foreground right, Alexander Smith walks along, taking in the sights. The Pale Man follows about 50 feet behind him. Arrange the panel design so that the focus is on The Pale Man.

Caption: The Pale Man found the irony delicious.

Caption (2): He was an 'iceman' – criminal argot for a hitman.

Panel 2
Switch angles so that we see the Pale Man in the foreground left, Smyth walking away, carrying his attaché case, in the background right.
Caption: Those Water Brothers 'icemen' were going to lead him directly to the ultra-secret location of his contract.

Panel 3
Now Smyth is in the foreground again, but the camera angle is low and the focus is on his attaché case. The Pale Man can be seen following behind.

Caption: But first, he had to find out what Smyth intends to deliver to his boss.
