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
Ernie is now putting the last leg-brace on the Mass Driver. Bert has moved over to stand near him.

Ernie: What if it's tungsten? What's that do for us?

Bert: Well …

Panel 2
Medium close-up on Bert.

Bert: In that case, Reggie takes a financial bath, but we'll come out ahead enough to fix up some things around the office and buy a few rounds at Callahan's.

Panel 3
Two-shot of Ernie and Bert, and part of the Mass Driver.

Ernie: That's quite a gap between tungsten and plutonium.

Ernie: How likely are we to find each of those possible metals?

Bert: Sorry, but plutonium is really, really unlikely. But so is tungsten.

Panel 4
Medium close-up of Bert.

Bert: Not much chance of gold, either. So it's most likely osmium, iridium or platinum.

Bert: So we are probably going to do pretty well or maybe really well.

Bert: I like the odds.
