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

Strip 29

Panel 1
Back at Babbette’s counter, her granddaughter walks up to her holding the Continental note Guy had given her.

B the younger: What the slush am I supposed to do with this, Gramma?

B the elder: Mind your language, honey.

Panel 2
Babbette the elder leans on her counter to peer down at her granddaughter.

B the elder: Anyway, I need you to go round up up the Rev’rend and Sam and Davey and Neil and have them meet me in the poker room, right away.

B the elder (2): I’ll pay you point-2 gold gram.

Panel 3
Looking over the elder’s shoulder at the younger Babbette. She’s in horse-trader mode.

B the younger: Point-5 gold. And you owe me for bringing those two Terries here.

B the elder: Point-three-five, and the usual bounty for 'Shanghaiing' those two 'sailors' for the boarding house. And I’ll give you point-04 for the Continental. Final offer.


Panel 4.
Babbette the younger 'walks' away from the counter, holding the note in front of her with new-found interest. (We see her coming towards us in the foreground-right with her grandmother in the background watching her.)

B the younger: Okay, three-five on the round-up, but I think I’ll keep this note.

B the younger (2): It looks funny. I think I’ll get it laminated and add it to my collection of wierdities.
