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 1586
Panel 1Back in Alyss' living room, with Hugo and Murphy.
Alyss: So what did you do, Hugo, actually invent a transwarp conduit drive?
Hugo: I had little doubt that if an Alcubierre Warp Drive could work here, then a transwarp conduit was also achievable.
Panel 2
External view of the Causa Sui nestled under the main hull of the Dryhaven. The ships are cruising through 'subspace.' Hugo narrates from a cameo:
Hugo: But of course we needed towing to some resources.
Hugo: So worked out an agreement for the Soraxians to take us to it.
Hugo: I sort of implied that I needed those resources to build a transwarp engine for them.
Panel 3
Alyss' living room again. Alyss is teasing Hugo.
Alyss: 'Sort of implied'? Hugo, did you scam them?
Hugo: Everything depended on us getting to those raw materials, and these traders needed an incentive.
Hugo: But I didn't scam them, I just over-sold a bit.
