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
In Reggie and Babbette's hotel suite. It's a goodly-sized, 4-star hotel room, with a king-sized bed (coverings now completely disheveled), a work desk with chair (to the right), another overstuffed chair (to the left), and a wet-bar. Along one wall are glass doors to a balcony which overlooks Central Park, although we don't have to see it in the first panel. Currently, Babbette is lounging in the overstuffed chair, wearing a dressing gown which reveals as much as it conceals, sipping on a frozen margarita. Reggie is standing at the desk, looking at a 22-inch holo-display being projected from a holo-strip on the desktop.
Babbette: Cloud yachts?
Reggie: Yes! We can rent a cloud yacht and explore around in the atmosphere!
Panel 2
Reggie has walked over to where Babbette is seated, and looks excited. Babbette looks dubious about the subject, and continues sipping on her margarita.
Babbette: Which is just a yellowish mist.
Babbette: Oh goodie, sounds fascinating.

Panel 3
Medium 2-shot of Babbette and Reggie.
Reggie: No, it's more than that, I've read about it.
Reggie: There are yellow clouds and white clouds.

Panel 4
Reggie shifts into sales-pitch mode. Babbette is looking even more dubious.
Reggie: There are cloud canyons many kilometers deep.
Reggie: Areas where the clouds are so dense, day turns into night.
Reggie: Sometimes the sky is deepest blue and sometimes a bright canary color.
Reggie: We can ride through lightning storms.

Panel 5
Close 2-shot, Reggie is leaning in close to Babbette, who now seems to be gazing at something far away.
Reggie: And maybe we'll see some Venusian life.

Panel 6
Same shot, pulled back a little. Babbette is smiling an enigmatic smile. Reggie looks at her knowingly – he has won her over.
No dialog.
