Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Not-Safe dot Kickstarter [ May 6, 2024 ]
The big news this week is that Scott is preparing to launch a Kickstarter for his other comic, the very much NSFW Not-Safe.Space.
This over-sized (8.5 x 11-inch), 48 page book contains Chapter 1 of this naughty sci-fi spin-off, featuring Eithne Lamdagan, who happens to be Alyss Roaz' 7th-great granddaughter, in case you didn't know.
The story picks up roughly 2 years after QUANTUM VIBE: Assimulation left off, as Eithne and her K'Tagon boyfriend Ralff, wander through the Galaxy of the Gamer Godz, playing as the CUSH Queen, working to re-balance a real-life RPG that her travelling companion Hugo Galvez left in a bit of a mess.
Only instead of Eithne's CUSH turning people into techno-zombies, as the Godz originally intended, Eithne wants to make them techno-Succubi/Incubi, spreading what she calls an "Erogene" factor rendering them too busy making love, to make war. And of course, Eithne gets wrapped up in her work.
The campaign will start on May 14, and the link for the pre-launch page is here.
Transcript For Strip 1433
Panel 1Eithne still sitting in the chair, flanked by Hugo and Murphy.
Hugo: What do you mean, your starship?
Eithne: I combined my fees from my services of two years ago ...
Murphy: Two years?
Panel 2
Medium close-up on Eithne.
Eithne: You said you'd be back in a year. I gave you that plus 18 tendays.
Eithne: When you didn't show I started the process of fabbing your new bodies, downloading your stored memories – good thing you made back-ups right before you left.
Eithne: I'm now a fully-certified roboticist, by the way.
Panel 3
Two-shot of Hugo and Murphy. They know they've been out-maneuvered.
Eithne (OP): I also started building a new starship.
Eithne: But this time I've paid for all the materials, and my services restoring you this time should cover use of your facilities.
Eithne: So, it's my starship. Wanna go back to Galaxy S257163185 with me?
Panel 4
Hugo, Murphy and Eithne hash it out.
Hugo: All right, we can accept you as boson, but when we are underway I'm the captain.
Murphy: Actually we agreed I'd be captain on our next trip.
Eithne: No. I'm the captain.
Panel 5
Hugo turns abruptly to leave. Murphy starts to follow. Eithne is flummoxed.
Hugo: Out of the question. We'll build our own ship. Get this one out of my bay .
Murphy: Don't forget to gather up any of your belongings ashore.
Eithne: Whaaat?
Panel 6
Hugo and Murphy smile at each other knowingly as Eithne stands and sulks.
Eithne: All right, all right, I'll be the boson!
Eithne: Just promise you'll take me with you!
Hugo: What do you think, sweetie?
Murphy: I think I'm the captain.
