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
Robyn, in a jail-type jumpsuit, is mopping a floor in an institutional-type office area (dingy walls, cheap furniture, linoleum floor). On Robyn's right, a female guard is playfully stroking Robyn's cheek. Robn glares back at her.

Caption (Robyn): 'While in the Youth Authority, a female correction officer came onto me. I told her to keep her hands to herself.'

Panel 2
Robyn rams the mop handle into the guard's nose. The guard's hand is on Robyn's ass.

Caption: 'When she touched me again, I … uh, well, I broke her nose with the mop handle.'

Panel 3
Back to the present, in the cafe booth. We're facing the wall at this point.

Babbette: Oh, so you have a history of breaking noses.

Emily: Shush! I want to hear this.


Panel 4
Switch angles, now we're viewing the scene from the wall. Beyond the booth, we see a half dozen people sitting or standing a short distance away, listening intently.

Robyn: When I was 10, my parents enrolled me in a Kendo dojo after a bullying incident in school.

Robyn: It paid off … sort of.
