Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

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
Merry, seen from behind, is standing in front of the desk where Pablo sits. We can see the backs of the defendants' heads behind Merry and to the left in the lower foreground. Over to the right lower foreground, we can also see the backs of Ernie and Bert Guzmán's heads. Bert is sitting to Ernie's right. (Sort of establishing the whole scene).
Pablo: Number four, these are serious charges against your clients – attempted murder, false imprisonment, destruction of property, reckless endangerment, and horse theft.

Panel 2
Medium close-up of Merry, mouth open as if about to speak, but she is interrupted by Pablo.
Pablo: Merry, that was a joke.

Panel 3
Cut to a medium two-shot of Bert and Ernie, seated in chairs and listening quietly as Pablo speaks. We can see a few courtroom spectators seated behind them.
Pablo: But stealing a man's ride in the Belt is pretty much the same thing.

Panel 4
Medium shot of Pablo on his desk, tapping his finger on the soft-ball sized device on his desk.
Pablo: Anyway, five, the record has no choice but to show what transpires here. It's all in this omni-recorder.
