Story & Art: Scott Bieser - 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.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 124
Panel 1Abdi leads Nicole into a large room full of pipes, cylindrical tanks, and scattered control panels. We see another man (his back to us) attending one of the control panels. Now Nichole looks more interested.
Abdi: This is our main engineering section – or at least, as much as one can enter without protective gear.
Panel 2
Abdi and Nicole approach the man at the control panel. The man turns to greet Nicole – he is lanky and dark-skinned, black hair.
Abdi: This is Jayesh Patel, our senior engineer.
Jayesh: What? Oh, one of our passengers. Hello there.
Panel 3
Nicole looks more interested in the machinery than in the men.
Nicole: Wow, is this a two-stage singularity drive? I didn't know any were still in service.
Jayesh: Yeah, well, I've modified things quite a bit. Hardly factory standard.
Panel 4
Jayesh grins as he makes a joke, but Abdi and Nicole roll their eyes.
Jayesh: And she can make the Kessel Run in Twelve Parsecs.
Nicole: Oh, geez, that joke was old when my boss was in diapers.
