Sci-Fi Adventure Monday & Thursday.
To boldly go where no manic pixie dream girl has gone before.
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 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 1543
Panel 1Back to the workshop in Causa Sui. Present-Hugo leads off the narration in a caption box. In the scene, Murphy appears in the doorway behind where story-Hugo is working.
Caption (Hugo): 'Within 50 kilo-seconds Murphy was up and about.'
Murphy: What are you doing? We have to go back for Eithne!
Panel 2
Hugo holds up a module he's working on, examining it with an extended eye. Murphy looks on.
Hugo: Unquestionably. But we must be prepared before we deal with these … gluteans.
Hugo: We must match their ability to scan great distances super-luminally.
Hugo: And also to shield ourselves from their scanners.
Panel 3
Hugo, now holding a small bundle of modules in each arm, strides purposefully into the corridor, with Murphy following close behind.
Murphy: Do you think you can do all that?
Hugo: Hard to say.
Hugo: Some of this tech shouldn't work, but it seems to. That makes engineering way more interesting.
