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 1256
Panel 1Bok, Zander and Diana seat themselves in overstuffed chairs arrayed around a coffee table in a comfortable-looking lounge. On a large, curved wall before them are what appear to be windows affording a view of a starry sky.
Bok: Wherever we are, I guess it's still night-time here. The windows ...
Michael: I'm sorry, but those are not windows. They are monitor screens.
Zander: Wow, really?
Panel 2
The kids are startled by Michael's next revelation.
Michael: I should also inform you that what you are seeing is not a 'night sky.'
Michael: It is how space always looks here. Let me rotate the view a bit ...
Panel 3
The kids are dumbfounded by what they see and hear next. On the monitor screens appears a fairly bright star in the starfield. (We can see the kids' faces reflected in the lower part of the screen.)
Michael: That particularly bright star is the star your world orbits.
Michael: We are in a space-station located half a light-year from that star, well outside its heliopause.
