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.
We Made It! [ Jun 2, 2022 ]
Third try, as they say, is a charm.
The crowdfunding campaign for QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War Part 2 made its goal one day before the closing, and climbed a bit over the top in the final day.
Over the next week Scott will design the back cover and assemble the book pages for printing. We expect to have the printed books (as well as the cards and T-shirts) on hand in the second half of June and will ship them out to backers ASAP.
(The e-book version will also be released by then and we'll announce that date when we have it locked down.)
Panel 1
Shlack, Krasp and Hugo next to the power core control.
Shlack: We've used systems like this for centuries.
Krasp: And singularity break-outs hardly ever happen.
Hugo: Some fairly easy modifications can increase your efficiency by 40 percent.
Panel 2
Shlack, Krasp and Hugo. In this frame Prenk is also standing next to Shlack.
Shlack: Prenk, get a slate for Dr. Galvéz so he can record his suggested modifications.
Hugo: I should warn you that these changes will also increase your risk of a singularity break-out by 50 percent.
Panel 3
Shlack, Krasp and Hugo.
Shlack: Krasp, how much is 50 percent more of 'hardly ever'?
Krasp: Ah … roughly one extra failure per 150,000 light-years traveled?
Hugo: A small price to pay.
