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
Bok and Zander are seated in his father's 'buggy.' Pretty much a streamlined golf cart with an enclosing dome. Bok is in the control seat, with Zander riding shotgun. We see them through the dome, in an establishing shot that indicates the buggy is in a parking garage with other vehicles.
Zander: How did you get a certification? Your aunt doesn't even have a personal vehicle.
Bok: The same way I get lots of things – I have connections.
Zander: Which means you never had lessons? How do you know how to drive this?
Panel 2
Closer-in shot as Bok is reaching down to touch a switch on the dashboard.
Bok: I've watched your dad and some others drive these buggies. It isn't hard.
Bok: First, you have to switch the engine on, like so …
SFX: Hmmmmmmmmmm
Bok: Make sure it's in the right gear and gently press the go pedal ...
Panel 3
The two are jostled violently in their seats.
SFX: RRK! RRK! RRK! RRK!
