Strip 943 -- First Seen: 2012-04-27
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.
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
Leon enters the ISS's main bridge, Terry close behind. Everyone is there at various stations. Leon takes charge.
Leon: Report, Mr. Nasiff.
Panel 2
Everyone is omn-edge, but professional and serious. No one is panicking, however Moises is slightly more distraught than the rest.
Moises: We have been exposed, Captain.
Moises: The media aren't saying where they got the story. They are talking a lot about you, but not the rest of us. So, it looks as though they don't know who else is involved.
Panel 3
From behind Moises we see the rest of the crew and Leon listening intently.
Moises: Some of the blow-dries are saying that you have taken Svetlana, Henrique and Raymundo as hostages.
Moises: There is a lot of blah-blah about mounting a rescue and hanging the pirates from the yardarm.
Panel 4
Leon has a snarky look on his face as his crew laughs at his joke.
Leon: That's a pretty silly threat in zero-gee.
Panel 5
Leon becomes more serious as he asks Moises a question.
Leon: Anything official?
Moises: Well all of the ISS treat signatories—except the Russians—are transmitting impossible orders and unrealistic threats.
Moises: They are pretty much foaming at the mouth. When their ire goes down, I suspect they will dial it down a bit.
Panel 6
Smallish panel. Moises and Leon.
Moises: Shall I respond?
Leon: For now, no.
Panel 7
Close-up of Leon, looking intense.
Leon: However, I have the first draft of a statement I want us to make.
Leon: I need everyone's input.
