Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter!
UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!
UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.
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.
The Transcript For This Page
Strip 75
Panel 1
Wide panel showing for the first time the exterior of Section 12-327. It looks fairly intact, but Section 326 to the left is seriously warped with several ruptures, Section 325 farther to the left is an almost unrecognizable mass of metal. The connection to Section 328 on the right is also askew. The Sections stretch across the surface of a huge iron boulder. Leave room for the EFT logo etc.
Caption: Guy, Fiorella and Lorna are trapped in a sealed-off Corridor Section. The temperature inside is dropping rapidly, and their prospects for rescue are unknown.
Panel 2
Inside the Section, we see the three of them cocooned together inside the thermal blanket, gently resting against the “floor” of the Corridor, in the micro-gravity.
Guy: I must say, I’m feeling rather toasty now. What’s the room temperature?
Panel 3
Close-up of the 3 of them inside the blanket. Lorna has her PDA up near her face, looking at the small holo-display.
Lorna: Minus 27. This blanket is rated to minus 100.
Lorna (2): With the 3 of us in here we can probably do okay down to minus 120 or so.
Panel 4
Same shot. Guy and Fiorella are speaking as Lorna looks on.
Guy: Penny for your thoughts?
Fiorella: All I can think about is our chief sitting on her fat ass in her comfy chair in her comfy office, licking her chops over the bounty she expects us to bring in.
Panel 5
Same shot. Guy is scandalized.
Guy: Fiorella --!
Fiorella: Does our fat chief – or her even fatter superiors – ever risk their necks, or the fortunes they have stashed in their secret UAE accounts, wresting wealth out of cold, unforgiving rock and vacuum the way these Outies do?
Panel 6
Guy is even more scandalized. Now Fiorella is looking apologetically at Lorna, who is looking amused.
Guy: Fiorella!!
Fiorella: Sorry, that slipped out. No offense intended.
Lorna: It’s okay, honey.
Panel 7
Now we’re back outside, looking at the stricken Section 12-327. Leave space above and below it for the word balloons.
Lorna (from inside section): Cheer up kids, my buddies and I have been in worse situations than this.
Fiorella: You have?
Lorna: Oh yeah.... Unfortunately, none of us survived!
Guy: *Chortle*
Fiorella: *Giggle*
