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 157
Panel 1Inside the shuttle, the Pilot, Nicole and Seamus.
Pilot: The gravitic sensor shows the bogey has stopped accelerating, and now we're pulling away at 90 meters per second.
Seamus: Nicole, I think you can safely lower the laser shield now.
Panel 2
Pilot, peering at his console.
Pilot: I can see it now on the aft viewer.
Pilot: It's a Huweijian Wu-nian-class ship … and it looks completely inert.
Panel 3
Exterior of the shuttle – the laser shield is gone, the EM-shield is so large we can't see it in the frame. The bogey is now barely visible in the background.
Seamus (from shuttle): All right Nicole, I think we can safely kill the EM-shield now.
Nicole: Dropping EM-shield.
Panel 4
Shuttle interior, Pilot gazes at his console as Seamus looks on.
Pilot: I'm getting a radar reflection consistent with that class of ship, but ...
Pilot: There's no other energy signature. All of her systems are dead.
