Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

Kickstarter successful and closed

The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)

Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!

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
Cut to: the office of Jairam Ramesh, partner in the Comet Ice & Water Company. A placard with the company logo is on one of the walls. The office is not fancy, or particularly large. Ramesh, an Indian man with high-combed black hair and a full moustache, sits behind a modest desk, and one of his associates stands nearby. Facing him across the desk are Marsha Plotner and two of her Mascon friends.
Marsha: I am Marsha Plotner and we are with the Ad Hoc Committee for Pure Water.
Ramesh: Good afternoon, Sv Plotner, what can I do for ...

Panel 2
Marsha leans forward, presenting a sheet of plas-paper full of some writing. Ramesh looks bewildered.
Marsha: We demand that you clean up the water you're selling us!
Ramesh: Clean up -- but our water is clean. I don't understand ...

Panel 3
Now Marsha has her arms crossed, looking down at Ramesh like a prosecutor accusing a criminal.
Marsha: Clean? Ha! Our tests prove your water is contaminated with magnesium!
Ramesh: But -- magnesium is the ninth most common element in the universe.

Panel 4
Marsha leans forward with slitted eyes and points a pudgy finger at Ramesh. Ramesh is defensive.
Marsha: Don't pull that physics crap on me. I know heavy-metal contamination when I taste it.
Ramesh: It's the eleventh most common element in the human body.
