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 1741
Panel 1Now dressed in a somewhat flashier style, Diana is emerging from her flycar parked in front of a flashy nightclub with a sign reading 'Pé do Clube.' (Club Foot)
Caption: Juan knew he'd never solve this case without me so I was able to negotiate a big fat bonus, along with a reasonable raise.
Caption: Case-law reading could wait. This was a night to celebrate.
Panel 2
Just inside the club entrance, Diana is 'parking' her flycar by shoving the briefcase into a slot in a wall with dozens of similar slots. A sign reads, 'Estacionamento.'
Caption: Pé do Clube isn't far from home and usually had one of my favorite Spinners on deck.
Caption: It also has such a varied clientele that, well, it's hard to feel out-of-place when everyone around you else is, too.
Panel 3
Medium-distance shot of Diana dancing her ass off on the dance floor. In the foreground, we see a group of Coneheads chatting with each other. Other guests in the club are all very diverse.
Caption: It was a good place to mingle, but I'm not much of a mingler.
Caption: I just like to dance.
Panel 4
Looking past the Coneheads, at a corner of the bar, we see a silhouetted figure watching the dance floor. He's wearing a hat tall enough to conceal a cone-head.
Caption: Most people ignore me gyrating on the dance floor.
Caption: Some watch me. Some proposition me.
Caption: I don't care, I just come here to dance.
