Hu Iz Alyss Roaz?
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.

Panel 3
Diana and Monty.
Monty: As your reward for saving her life, Alyss has created an account for you in the amount of 25 moebits.

Monty is giving a handy, something like a smartphone device, to Diana.
Diana: Wow, I guess that's … a lot?
Monty: From that has been deducted 417 mini-moebits for the flyer, for your translation devices, and sundries such as your new jacket.
Monty: Contact lenses and ear buds. You will find them in the flyer. This handy will tell you how to use them.

With her handy in hand, Diana gives the panda a kiss on the cheek.
