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.
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 1555
Panel 1Eithne coughs as she tries to make herself understood. SAPP is tapping on her tablet again.
Eithne: It isn't nonsense! How can you say it's non … {kaff-kaff}
Eithne: C-{kaff!} Can I get some water? I'm parched.
SAPP: I'll send for some.
Panel 2
Focus on SAPP
SAPP: Let me spell things out for you:
SAPP: Your ship traveled 600 stellars and back in less than eight dechrons. That's equivalent to roughly 70,000 times light-speed.
SAPP: At that rate, it would take almost 15 thousand years to travel 600 million stellars.
Panel 3
Eithne is face-palming as SAPP continues.
SAPP: We're pretty sure you're not 15 thousand years old.
SAPP: Now, your servant 'Doctor Hugo' told us the drive was based on hyperspace slipstream technology, which our scientists believe could move a ship that quickly.
SAPP: It is also one of the possible technologies the Cush are using.
Panel 4
Eithne interrupts.
Eithne: Wait – my 'servant' Hugo?
SAPP: Clearly, those machines are your servants. We saw through that ruse, too.
SAPP: But that's beside the point. We know the Cush are cyborgs …
SAPP: And so are you.
Panel 5
Eithne's jaw drops as SAPP continues.
SAPP: We scanned you thoroughly while treating your injuries.
SAPP: We know you have a cybernetic implant suffused through out your brain.
SAPP: Your body contains billions of nanites, performing various functions some of which we understand and others we're still figuring out.
Panel 6
Eithne face-palms again.
SAPP: You're a different sort of cyborg than any of the Cush we've seen so far, but you're likely a more sophisticated type, as one might expect to see in an advance scout.
SAPP: So cut the crap, Enya Lawndragon, if that's your real name, and let's get to the truth of the matter, eh?
Eithne: It's 'Eithne Lamdagan' and … oh, shuck it.
