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
Reggie, carrying a medium-sized suitcase, is walking through the concourse at Mars' spaceport, and talking on his comm. The place is busy but not crowded. Show a few other people in the background.

Reggie: No, Babbette, I haven't heard from Bert or Ernie. Did they say where on Mars they were going?

Panel 2
He's at the gate from which his space-liner, the Delta Free, is departing. The procedure here is more like checking into a hotel than boarding a modern-day airliner. He shows a card to the attendant, which identifies him to her. She smiles as she keys something into the small console at her stand.

Reggie: Yes, I know, but they're big boys who can take care of themselves.

Attendant: Thank you, Sv. King. Your suite is ready.


Panel 3
Reggie, seen from behind, walks through some pressure doors. Above or beside the door we see an electonic sign reading: GATE 17 DELTA FREE bound for CERES.

Reggie: Yes, I'm coming back on the Delta Free. Should be home in about two decadays.


Panel 4
Medium shot of Reggie walking through the connecting tunnel to the spaceliner.

Reggie: It has to do with acceleration and the two planets' relative orbital positions ...

Reggie: Let's just say, 'I cannae change the laws o' physics' and leave it at that, okay?
