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.
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 1604
Panel 1Elevated view of Eithne and Ralf seated at a dining table, Eithne has a tray of food before her.
From a cameo inset, Murphy narrates.
Murphy: The rest of that day passed quietly, Eithne still played at 'learning' K'Tagonese.
Murphy: The time for action would come after the prisoners had been herded back to their cells.
Panel 2
Eithne is seated cross-legged on her bunk in her cell, 'meditating.'
Eithne: Okay, it's time. The senior IT geeks will be in their sleep mode.
Eithne: I have everything prepared that can be.
Eithne: Unless I've overlooked something that will bring things to a screeching halt.
Eithne: I only get one shot at this.
Panel 3
Looking from past Ralf in his cell, he's reclined but raised up on one elbow and looking over at Eithne standing just inside her doorway, waving frantically to get his attention.
Eithne: I just hope Ralf will trust me enough to follow.
Eithne: He's both my greatest asset and my greatest danger.
