Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!

Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!

(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)

For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.

Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.

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.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Closer shot of the Newsreader, asking what he thinks is a pointed question.
Newsreader: But Professor, how can there be a specific location in the Belt with all those asteroids just whizzing about?

Panel 2
Closer shot of Harmon, patiently explaining to an idiot student.

Harmon: It's fairly straightforward.

Harmon: Every object in the Belt, or anywhere in the System, has unique 'orbital parameters': aphelion, eccentricity, inclination, etc.

Panel 3
Close-up of Newsreader, trying to look like he's following but, not really.

Harmon (OP): So, with a bit of math, you can define an orbit and then compute where the object is in that orbit at any given time.

Panel 4
Harmon again.

Harmon: However, we share no common language, math or 'epoch' with the alie … with whomever carved those runes and diagrams.
