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
Long shot of Bert and Ernie standing next to the assembled Mass Driver.
Bert: Anyway, this shaft isn't going to dig itself. Help me reset the bore head and reposition the Mass Driver.
Ernie: Do we really need the Mass Driver?

Panel 2
Medium shot of Bert, waxing professorial.
Bert: You tell me. We have to dig through 50 to 100 meters of regolith.
Bert: The material from the shaft has to go somewhere. The bore will throw it out of the shaft, but it will fall back eventually and bean us.

Panel 3
Long shot taking in the brothers and the entire Mass Driver. Angle the shot so we're seeing the MD from it's exhaust-tube end.
Bert: The mass driver tosses the rubble away at over 30 meters per beat. It won't be coming back.

Panel 4
Ernie looks over at Bert.
Ernie: I say let's reset the bore tomorrow. I wanna call it a day and fly back to Dactyl.
Ernie: I'm bushed and feeling homesick for cave, sweet cave.
