Sci-Fi Adventure Monday & Thursday.
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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Transcript For Strip 1017
Panel 1Nicole has stepped away from the whiteboard, looking troubled.
Nicole: So, Seamus really was Farnsworth.
Murphy: You heard him say so.
Nicole: Yeah, but … well, I'd hoped it was some ruse, I guess.
Panel 2
Nicole and Murphy.
Nicole: So I've been in league with the devil incarnate all this time. We both are.
Murphy: You know that's not true.
Murphy: Look at all the benefits he's brought humanity in the last four centuries.
Panel 3
Murphy's soliloquy:
Murphy: Back when people only lived seven or eight decades, it was truly said that 'people never really change.'
Murphy: But give them enough time and they can, they do. I've seen it myself.
Murphy: Trust me, in 500 years you'll be a different person than you are now.
Panel 4
Murphy puts an arm around Nicole's shoulders.
Nicole: Assuming I live that long.
Murphy: You can, if our civilization survives.
Murphy: So, let's stay on task.
