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.

Quantum Vibe: This Means War (Part 1) - By Scott Bieser

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.

Please help Scott keep QUANTUM VIBE alive!

Transcript For Strip 1321

Panel 1
Alyss gets professorial again.
Alyss: Overcoming obstacles and challenges while growing up stimulates brain growth.
Alyss: It increases the connections between neurons.
Alyss: If the challenges become too stressful, of course, that can have adverse effects as well.
Alyss: But on Zytemonde, everything is handed to you on a platter. Any challenges are trivial.
Panel 2
Three-shot of Sargon, Alyss, Bok.
Sargon: So, your aim was to make us smarter? Why?
Alyss: It was part of my development plan.
Alyss: I needed you to be smart enough to understand what your system was doing to you, and why it needs to change.
Panel 3
Sargon, Alyss, Bok. Alyss looks embarrassed.
Sargon: Well, considering how things went, maybe you should have eaten some 'Tartar Sauce' yourself.
Alyss: Well, I … I can't deny I messed things up.
Alyss: But even the smartest people can fall victim to hubris.
Bok: Not to mention thinking you're smarter than you really are.
