Strip 21

Panel 1
Wide angle shot of Guy and Fiorella standing at the boarding house entrance. Guy may be steadying himself by bracing his arm against the door-jamb (actually it’s an airlock doorway). They are contemplating the large sign which we saw in the last strip, which we can now see large and clearly:

Water Bros. Ice Mining, Boarding House and Café.
Bert & Ernie Guzmán, Proprietors
Proud Sponsors of the 'Ice Hammers' Surface Hockey Team
And the 'Brothers in Arms' CDPA Shooting Squad.

Panel 2
Two-shot of Guy and Fiorella, still looking at the sign. Guy is disapproving.

Guy: 'Brothers in Arms'

Guy (2): Sounds rather primitive, don’t you think? Actually, so does hockey. What a barbaric relic.

Panel 3
Guy is moving past Fiorella into the airlock doorway, bracing himself with one hand on the door-jamb. Fiorella is looking at him sideways but otherwise expressionless.

Guy: Personally, I'm proud to be ignorant of football, baseball, basketball and all the other 'ball and stick' games so many of our UWRS contemporaries seemed to love so much.

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.
