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.

Transcript For Strip 1484
Panel 1Looking past Eithne, Murphy and Hugo at Captain Pbbbbbbbt and lieutenants on the screen.
CP: One thing that is puzzling us. We see three of you on our monitor ...
CP: And yet our sensors indicate only one life-entity.
Hugo (thoughtsend): Uh-oh.
Panel 2
Murphy, 'splaining, gesturing towards Eithne.
Murphy: Our culture is very … diverse.
Murphy: Some, like myself, are machines, made from metals and plastics.
Murphy: Others, like Eithne here, are … bio-forms, grown from … seeds.
Panel 3
Now Murphy is gesturing towards Hugo.
Murphy: And still others, like Hugo here, were once bio-forms but become machines when their bodies cannot be repaired.
Murphy: In our culture, machine people and bio-form people have equal legal status. I am Captain of our ship because we agreed to this.
Panel 4
Captain Pbbbbbbbt and lieutenants, seen on the Causa Sui viewscreen.
CP: This is interesting. We have no 'machine people' such as you.
CP: Your technology must be very advanced.
CP: We invite you to visit our ship during our transit to Pbbtptlptl-pbpbt.
Panel 5
Hugo, Murphy and Eithne.
Hugo (thoughtsend): I should be the one to go.
Murphy (thoughtsend): Why is that?
Hugo: For one thing, I'm the most paranoid among us.
Hugo: Also, I can learn more quickly than either of you.
Panel 6
Same shot. Eithne is a bit surprised.
Murphy (thoughtsend): Your logic is sound … in this instance.
Murphy (aloud): We accept your invitation, and will send Hugo to visit.
Hugo (thoughtsend): I rather expected an argument there.
Murphy (thoughtsend): Too late to change your mind.
