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

Panel 1
Establishing shot of Forbidden Castle, perched on an island in the Hollow Earth's equatorial lake. We can see a few watercraft staying well away from the island.
Ernie (from inside castle): Okay, I see you are a big Frazetta fan .. and is that a Boris Vallejo piece?

Panel 2
The living room portion of Tobi's suite at Forbidden Castle. Roughly 400 square feet, but simply furnished, except that that walls are lined with large fantasy paintings. We see Ernie speaking with Tobi as they stand near one of the paintings. Also visible in the room are Bert, plus Arana and Commander Drenkowski, who are bringing in extra chairs. The other furniture consists of a sofa and two overstuffed chairs, arranged around a coffee table.
Tobi: You have a good eye.
Tobi: Most of these are ultra-res prints, but the one you're looking at is an original.

Panel 3
Two-shot of Ernie and Tobi, still looking at the nearest of the paintings.

Tobi: Cost me an arm and a leg.
Ernie: Yeah, but you got more arms and legs than anyone.
Mac: (OP) Son of a bitch!

Panel 4
Cut to another part of the room, where Mac and Nisa are near another painting. It features two voluptuous females who strongly resemble Mac and Nisa, in some sort of sensual embrace. Mac is red-faced with anger as she practically screams at Tobi.
Mac: Is this supposed to be me and Nisa as naked Boris bimbos, doing … well, I'm not sure what!

Caption: Nisa, Tobi's other bodyguard

Panel 5
Mac struts up to Tobi and gets in his face. Tobi rocks back a bit, as Ernie looks on in wry amusement.
Mac: Where did you get this and what's the big idea?
Tobi: Well, uh, did you know that Arana also paints?

Panel 6
Now Nisa has also walked up to confront Tobi – we're looking at a very sheepish-appearing Tobi from behind them, their hands on their hips in a clear 'you're in trouble, buster' pose. Off to one side of Tobi, we can see Arana standing by, now glowering at Tobi.
Tobi: I sort of asked him to paint me something in the style of Frazetta.
Tobi: He … he's the one who suggested making it of you two.
Tobi: Totally his idea.
