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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
Panel 1
Hugo dashes into the ship's sick-bay/repairs room.
Hugo: Just my luck they hit Murphy first and not me.
Hugo: In her 'Berserker Mode' she could make short work of these brigands.
Panel 2
Hugo is remembering a conversation from long ago. We see him in cameo in the lower-left corner, the memory plays above and right. In the memory, Hugo is in his skivvies, sitting on a work-bench, speaking with Murphy (who has a different hair-style, like what she had at the end of Volume3).
Murphy: Be careful as you get used to this new body. You will be five times stronger, and 10 times faster than in your former meat-body.
Hugo: How about in Berserker Mode?
Panel 3
Hugo looks like a little boy that just had his favorite toy taken away. Murphy is scanning him with some gadget.
Murphy: You've a history of … anger management issues.
Murphy: To the tune of 125 million deaths, more or less.
Murphy: I think you're dangerous enough without a Berserker Mode.
