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
Wide panel. Pan across each of the students describing the music.

Manjula: It was – very faint at first.

Second student: It seemed to grow almost organically out of the background, the wind noise.

Heinrich: After a while, you could not ignore it. It seemed to demand attention.

Fourth student: Sometimes, it wasn't only music. There were also, uh, voices.

Fifth student: But always vague, and ethereal.

Irina: Not all of us heard voices.

Seventh Student: But we did all hear the same music.


Panel 2
Angle shot so we see Reggie in the background left, and Fourth Student and Heinrich (from behind) in the right foreground.
Reggie: Waitaminit. How do you know it was the same music?

Fourth student: Heinrich and I both have musical backgrounds. We each transcribed the music we heard ...

Panel 3
Medium close-up of Reggie, reacting in shock to what the student is saying.
Fourth student: When we compared notes, we saw they were virtually identical.
