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
Exterior of the Alpha Relentless, hovering near the giant 'Grey Alien' planetoid.

Darling (from inside boat): You want to broadcast or scans again?

Darling: After what happened last time?

Panel 2
In the control room, Captain Gondalia lays a reassuring hand on F.O. Darling's shoulder. Darling is fuming.

Gondalia: Orders from ComCen this time, Mr. Darling..

Gondalia: By sharing our scans we won't have others getting in our way trying to scan this blasted thing themselves.

Panel 3
Focus on the Crewman, who is focused on his console. Gondalia hovering over him.

Crewman: No recess or carvings in either eye this time, sir.

Gondalia: Continue scans in pattern alpha. If there are markings they could be anywhere.

Panel 4
Medium close-up on Darling, who is holding his hand to the side of his head as if he has a headace.

Caption: Eventually:

Crewman (OP): Carvings spotted, sir.

Crewman: This time in the, uh, anal cavity.

Panel 7
Exterior of the Split-Tail rocketing away. It looks a bit different now. Same size and number of engines, but body style is changed.

Fiorella: I don't feel too cool following the Relentless around like this.

Two-shot of Fiorella and Doris in the control deck.

Doris: There's no telling what our Darling First Officer might do if he ran across us again.
