Story & Art: Scott Bieser - Colors: Lea Jean Badelles
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.
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.)
Transcript For Strip 1717
Strip 290Panel 1
It's the instant after the previous panel, Eithne's avatar is disintegrating around Theo's spike, and he's extatic.
Theo: At last! I've destroyed that unctuous pest!
Theo: Now to deal with my copy.
Panel 2
The circuit board suddenly convulses violently around Theo, breaking up into square pieces.
Theo: What the devil –?
Panel 3
Theo turns around as the pieces are arranging themselves into a gigantic image of Hugo's face, and boy is he furious.
Hugo: Oh, I'm much worse than the devil.
Panel 4
The circuit board is nearly gone now, its pieces having nearly reassembled themselves into a gigantic armed and armored version of Hugo. Theo has resumed his android form.
Theo: You can't do this!! This is MY DOMAIN!
Hugo: It's mine now. You should have come up with some more original pass-phrases.
Panel 5
Theo is himself transforming into a giant armored 'bot, facing off against Hugo.
Theo: You can break into my castle but you won't kick me out!
Hugo: Kick you out? Oh, that's not my plan.
Panel 6
Hugo raises his arms to the 'sky' and shoots out energy blasts in all directions, wreaking more havok. Theo fends of some of the blasts coming his way.
Theo: I'm going to destroy your fucking castle.
