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
Terry has sat down at the kitchen island and holds her cup towards Leon. We see just his arm pouring more coffee in her cup.
Terry: Why Panama, Leon? I never understood why you set up our offshore operation there.
Panel 2
Smallish panel. Leon grinned and looks to the side with a humorous expression on his face.
Leon: Early on when I was starting BALListic Solutions, I spoke at a space conference near San Francisco.
Panel 3
Flashback panel of Vincent Cassandra talking passionately to a younger Leon at a space conference. Vincent looks a bit on the crazy side of passionate.
Leon (Narrating): After my presentation, I was button-holed by this intense 'space nut' named Vincent Cassandra. He told me that the perfect place in the world for private space development was Panama.
Leon (narrating): I couldn't see it and told him so. Then he foretold what was going to happen to me.
Panel 4
Close-up of Vincent's frustrated, huffy face, shaking a finger in a condescending way.
Leon (narrating): He said that I would spend millions of dollars on a launch facility in the US, but then the government would suddenly 'discover' that my down-range was the habitat of the endangered 'Mexican jumping bean' and that they would rescind my launch license.
