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.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]

Transcript For Strip 1368
Panel 1Alyss stands near Santiago, who is resting in a bed, apparently asleep.
Caption: Aboard the Eva Jeanne, near Zytemonde:
Alyss: My dear Santiago. You paid such a heavy price for my mistakes.
Alyss: Am I about to make another one?
Panel 2
Closer shot on Santiago and Alyss.
Alyss: I thought together we could lead a renaissance on Zytemonde.
Alyss: Bring your people back from the precipice of extinction.
Alyss: I thought that my five centuries' experience gave me the wisdom to anticipate the problems, and deal with them.
Panel 3
Close-up on Alyss. Behind her, we can see Bok peeking from behind a doorway.
Alyss: But I guess I'm not as smart as I thought.
Alyss: Maybe old Hugo was right. Maybe we need disasters like the 'Venus' worlds to remind us of the misery that top-down economies always produce.
Alyss: And to remind us of the iron fist inside collectivism's velvet glove.
