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!
Transcript For Strip 1063
Panel 1Nigel, Buford, Nicole and Murphy seated in the Levins' living room. Nigel and Buford are drinking from tall glasses, Nicole from a short glass, into which she's pouring some whiskey from a bottle.
Caption: An hour of lubricated catching-up later:
Buford: So Seamus' secret t'eory was wrong after all?
Nicole: I don't know, but now we have a star-drive and no actual theory to explain it.
Panel 2
Different angle, to focus on Murphy.
Murphy: The theory can come later, but we have a more urgent use for the drive …
Murphy: And it's the reason we came to see you now.
Murphy: We intend to rescue Seamus.
Panel 3
Nigel and Buford are surprised, again.
Nigel: Seamus is alive, too?
Buford: Where? T'ere are all kinds of conspiracy t'eories about what happened but I t'hought t'ey were all bunk.
Murphy: Did one of those theories involve Wokka-DNG-Hoy?
Panel 4
Nigle and Buford exchange glances of dread. Nicole looks annoyed.
Nigel: T'e East-Terrans? He might as well be dead.
Buford: Once t'ey get someone, t'ere is no escape.
Nicole: There's a first time for everything, you know.
