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
Med shot of Diana, leaning on the desk with one elbow while sipping her drink in the other hand, looking at the monitor with annoyed confusion.
Max (from screen): … and made from the finest, real ingredients, not the replicated kind. Remember the name, Gyberzonn Hucklestix, and tell them Drusilla and I sent you for a 10 percent discount!
Drusilla: Hard to beat a deal like that, Max.
Max: That's right, Dru. And now, onto our story of the day ...
Panel 2
Drusilla and Max in their studio.
Max: We continue our examination of Kornbluth & Company Examiners, and the secret they don't want you to know.
Drusilla: Is it true what people have said, that they've been taking kick-backs from the werpolitzi suppliers?
Max: Hard to believe, but the facts don't lie, Drusilla.
Panel 3
Pull back from the monitor screen so we can see the back of Diana's head. Max's own head dominates the screen.
Max (from screen): Fact! Werpolitzi buyers have seen a steady drop in quality of goods!
Max: Fact! Kornbluth continues to give suppliers an 'A' rating!
Max: Fact! Kornbluth refuses to show us their account books!
Diana (thought): Fact! I don't have a clue what these guys are talking about.
