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
Re-establishing shot of Arana's office. Focus is on Arana but try to angle things so you get everyone – the girls and Reggie's hologram – into the shot.

Arana: I got bored.

Arana: Also, I wondered if I had what it took to pull off the biggest scam in human history.

Panel 2
Medium shot of Reggie's hologram, speaking.

Reggie: Not counting government, I think you succeeded.

Reggie: Your big heads got more press than any scam in history.

Panel 3
Medium shot of Arana basking in Reggie's praise.

Reggie: (OP) Your little 'scavenger hunt' fooled billions of suckers, not the least of which were the media.

Panel 4
Two-shot of the girls. Fiorella is laughing as Doris speaks.

Doris: Yeah, right.

Doris: So Reggie, when I contacted you about the 'Moai,' you just put two and two together?

Panel 5
Medium shot of Reggie's hologram.

Reggie: No, I knew something was funny about all this, but it took the Gray Alien to dial it in.

Reggie: So I contacted Arana, offered to help, and the rest is history.

Panel 6
Medium shot of Doris, looking back at Reggie's hologram.

Doris: Then you made sure I was there to 'communicate' with the Elvis Orb.

Doris: So why the park?


Panel 7
Medium shot of Arana, leaning forward on his desk, his face projecting excitement.

Arana: I actually wanted to create something lasting.

Arana: Plus, I needed funding to be able to carve those things. So I sought a real patron.


Panel 8
Two-shot of the girls, looking at each other in surprise.

Arana: I'd heard that Tobikuma Kobayashi had a quirky sense of humor.

Arana: So I decided to ask him to be my partner in crime.
