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 143
Panel 1Nicole is still in her hotel room, now she has her Screen at about 15x25 cm size, viewing a message from a friend – Gary Fox. She is smiling. An inset panel shows us who it is.
Fox (from the Screen): Hiya, Nicki, just got done with a job dropping supplies at a remote mining station and thought I'd drop you a line.
Panel 2
Looking at Nicole, her eyes going wide.
Gary: We didn't get to tell you about your Sun-Shooter jacket. It's more than just stylish.
Gary: It transforms into a fully-functional environment suit.
Panel 3
Looking over Nicole's shoulder at Gary, demonstrating the jacket.
Gary: Just touch the right-side lapel over to the badge on the left, and in three seconds, you are suited-up.
Gary: To change back, tap the center-plate on your collar 3 times in one second.
Panel 4
Looking at Nicole again, looking really annoyed.
Gary: I guess this information would've been handy when your room got vacuumed, huh?
Gary: Glad to know you survived that business just the same.
