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.
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 1625
Panel 1Hugo is bent over a work bench, fussing with bits of gadgetry and tools. His back is to us. Murphy looks on.
Murphy: But what does this mean?
Hugo: We're dealing with something with power possibly beyond our comprehension.
Hugo: Something that can fabricate reality at least down to the plank scale.
Panel 2
Angled view so that the gadget Hugo is building is in the foreground. We see Hugo's right eye telescope out several centimeters, giving him a 'zoom' view.
Hugo: I don't know whether to call this a 'simulation,' because it is all too real.
Hugo: But reality here has been 'programmed' to some definite purpose.
Hugo: From these pantomime aliens to altered physical constants allowing all this 'sub-space' business.
Panel 3
Hugo holds up the completed module to where Murphy can see it. It's about the size of a grapefruit .
Murphy: What are we going to do now? Do you have a plan?
Hugo: We're going to rebuild Causa Sui's Displacement Drive with this module, and go find Eithne.
