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 117
Panel 1Nicole and Seamus continue walking through a corridor, their suitcases following in their wake.
Seamus: So you don't like secrecy?
Seamus: You don't understand how vital it is to keep trade secrets in a world as both highly-competitive and highly-communicative as ours?
Panel 2
Medium close-up on Nicole, glancing sideways at Seamus.
Nicole: Of course I do. Especially after that first job interview.
Nicole: When you told me things about me even my mother doesn't know, I felt like I'd been stripped naked.
Panel 3
Two-shot of Nicole and Seamus. Seamus looks thoughtful.
Nicole: But I think I've earned your confidence in these matters, don't you?
Seamus: I suppose you're right. But I can't tell you here and now.
Panel 4
The two emerge from a corridor into a busy concourse.
Seamus: We need to find an ultra-secure location, and there isn't one available to us on Mercury.
Seamus: But I promise you that before we leave Venus, I will tell you everything you want to know. Deal?
