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 1488
Panel 1Hugo is standing in the middle of a room, by himself, while Eithne and Murphy look on from a few meters away. Hugo is holding his palm next to his head in the usual 'making a call' gesture, sticking his tongue out to speak in the aliens' language.
Caption: And so …
Hugo (translated): I am ready for transport.
Alien (electronic/translated): Prepare to energize.
Panel 2
Hugo dematerializes as Eithne and Murphy look on in amazement.
SFX: EEERRRRMMMMMM
Panel 3
Eithne and Murphy are left to gawk by themselves.
Eithne: It looks like they … disintegrated him!
Murphy: As I understand it, they did. And then re-integrated him on board their vessel.
Murphy: And if they didn't do it properly, they're gonna get 200 petajoules up their collective arses.
