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
Re-establish the scene. Just outside the hangar, the Guard is confronted by Commander Drenkowski, who is standing on the prow of Free Bird and poiting his automatic rifle at the guard.
Guard: Go ahead and shoot! I'm wearing a vest!
Panel 2
Medium close-up on Drenkowski, speaking with a taunting expression.
Drenkowski: Man, you're hardly even wearing pants.
Drenkowski: Besides, I was planning to shoot you in the face, if it came to that.
Panel 3
The guard whirls on his heel and begins walking back towards the hangar. We see Drenkowski behind him, still standing on Free Bird's prow.
Drenkowski (thought): Well, he's brave, if not bright.
Panel 4
Medium c/u of the Guard stopping short, his eyes going wide as he hears Drenkowski's voice.
Drenkowski (OP, emphasis): Stop, friend … or I will kill you.
Panel 5
The Guard, defeated, has turned to face Drenkowski, his hands in the air. We see the back of Drenkowski to one side of the panel.
Drenkowski: Got any weapons on you?
Guard: No.
Drenkowski: Where's your duty weapon and radio?
Guard: Inside.
Panel 6
Medium close-up on Drenkowski.
Drenkowski: Lay face down and don't do anything that might make me want to shoot you.
Drenkowski: Anybody with you?
Panel 7
Full shot of the doorway. The Med Tech is now standing just outside of it, pointing the Guard's MP5 up at Drenkowski. Her dress is still unbuttoned.
MedTech: Let him go.
