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.

Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter 2

The epic Not-Safe.Space story continues with Part 2, and Scott requires funds to publish a print volume of _Not-Safe.Space_ Chapter 2.

This large-format, 48-page trade paperback is a must for fans of Eithne Lamdagan, aka The CUSH Queen, and her friends

The campaign begins Sunday, April 6 and concludes Tuesday, May 8.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Medium close-up of a smiling Tobi. Leave room for dialog.
Tobi: One of my favorite writers, Voltaire, said, 'An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination.'
Tobi: I tend to agree, but here's my problem:
Tobi: I have a lot of financial power – maybe too much power.
Panel 2
Looking from behind Tobi at Arana, Bert and Ernie. Tobi is gesturing as he speaks. (We see them mostly from shoulders-up, to leave room for dialog.
Tobi: My home is a whole world.
Tobi: Yes, a small world, but The Little Prince still has thousands of inhabitants.
Tobi: That is a lot of power, and I don't want to be tempted to abuse it.
Panel 3
Another close-up on Tobi, looking a bit winsome.
Tobi: So I borrowed an idea from Gilbert & Sullivan's opera, Utopia, Limited.
Tobi: In that opera, it was the duty of the 'Public Exploder' to to blow up King Paramount, if necessary to prevent 'rascality.'
Panel 4
Tobi in the center, flanked by Mac and Nisa, who now stand with their arms crossed in front of him, looking at him with appraising eyes. We see the backs of Bert, Ernie, Arana, and Drenkowski's heads in the lower foreground.
Tobi: Now, I have seven people who can tell me to knock it off – and make their objection stick.
