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
Tall, narrow panel: Two-shot of the Brothers, standing almost nose to nose.
Ernie: Now, if we could just …
Bert: Get to Dactyl? So how could we do that …
Ernie: Our jetpacks?
Bert: Nope, too slow, not enough fuel …
Ernie: Even if one of us used both packs?
 
Panel 2
Wide, narrow panel. Bert waxes professorial.
Bert: Sorry, 'too slow' means that even if there were enough fuel – which there isn't – the packs have such a measly delta-V, it would take a decaday or more to get there and that's less time than we have in these suits.
Bert: So what are we missing?
 
Panel 3
Tight 2-shot of the Brothers, both staring inwardly, thinking.
No dialog.
 
Panel 4
Same shot, but Ernie suddenly speaks up
 
Ernie: How about you shoot me to Dactyl with the mass driver?
