Escape From Terra - by Sandy Sandfort, Scott Bieser and Lee Oaks! - Big Head Press, publishing Thoughtful Stories since 2002

Strip 627 -- First Seen: 2011-02-01
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

QV on a short break

QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.

In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.

Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.

Kickstarter successful and closed

The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)

Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!

The Transcript For This Page

In the Water Bros cafe, Libby (née Babbette) strides past the cashier stand where Emily Rose, now in charge of the cafe, stands vigil. Libby is putting on her 'Ceres Spaceport Agent' cap.
Emily: Off to hustle more fares?
Libby: There's a big burner coming in from Luna.

Panel 2
Libby strides Ceres-style towards the exit, turning her head a bit towards Emily, behind her.
Libby: Probably a lot of fat cats on a junket.
Libby: I'll give them the 'special' Terry rate.

Panel 3
Wide shot, at the spaceport lobby. No arriving passengers as yet, but there are six other teenagers of both genders waiting around, wearing their own versions of 'Ceres Spaceport Agent' caps. (One of them needs to be close enough to the camera we can read the cap so as to get the gag.)
Libby (thought): Well, so much for that gag.
