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 panel. Bert and Ernie are both sitting in the center 'seat' atop the Mass Driver. We see at least parts of the surrounding three hoppers, completely loaded with rocks now. Bert is holding a control unit (about the size of a modern TV remote control) which is on a tether attached to the body of the Mass Driver. Each Brother has a large rock (about 40 cm wide, 30 cm thick) in his lap.
Caption: Finally:
Bert: Ready?
Ernie: Pedal to the medal, Bert.
 
Panel 2
Large panel. The Mass Driver leaps up from the surface of Ida as it blows rocks out its lower end into Ida, kicking up a cloud of pulverized regolith. The brothers are grimacing from the unexpected kick. Elevated view, make this one as cool as you can.

SFX: WHOOM!
