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 1019
Panel 1The girls are watching the large monitor screen, which shows a tactical display including the planetoid, the ascending probe, and distance rings.
Murphy: The probe is ascending on-track for a 20,000-klick maximum altitude.
Nicole: Is that far enough?
Murphy: If it's not you'll be one of the first to know.
Panel 2
Close two-shot of the girls – Nicole looks a little bit nervous.
Nicole: It's reached – 20,105 klicks.
Murphy: The breach trigger should activate … NOW.
Panel 3
Same shot as first panel, the monitor is now showing a visual of the probe motionless in space.
Murphy: And … nothing.
Nicole: Nothing? Didn't the device activate?
Murphy: It activated. No effect. Nothing.
Panel 4
Close two-shot of the girls, looking disappointed.
Nicole: We worked for days on this. How can it be nothing?
Murphy: I'm recalling the probe. We'll take it apart and see what we can learn.
