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.
Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun! [ Nov 10, 2024 ]
Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).
The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

Panel 1
Nicole and Seamus are settling into their seats from the overhead hatch on the shuttle. We can see the Android driver in the pilot's seat. Seamus's eyes look strange, and Nicole is guiding him in.
Seamus: My sight's improving slightly, but not fast enough.
Seamus: Nicole, you're going to have to manage for me.
Nicole: Just a sec and you'll be strapped in.
Panel 2
Seamus has pulled his Screen, currently smart-phone sized, out of a coat pocket and is handing to Nicole.
Seamus: I meant, you'll have to manage Watson here.
Nicole: Your Screen? What's this for?
Seamus: Strap yourself in and I'll explain.
Panel 3
Nicole now has 'Watson' enlarged to about 10x15 cm and is touching its face with one finger. We can see Seamus in the background-right, with a hand over his eyes.
Seamus: Now, open the programs for 'RANGER,' 'EMP-F' and 'LSR-S' – their icons are in the lower right.
Nicole: And these are for what?
Panel 4
Close-up on Seamus – his hand is lowered, and we see his eyes are still afflicted.
Seamus: For getting us home alive.
