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.
Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun! [ Nov 10, 2024 ]
Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).
The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

Transcript For Strip 1768
Panel 1They're on a broad balcony projecting from the rear of the building, overlooking a garden. DeClayre gestures towards one of the two chairs flanking a small, round table.
Caption: Naturally, she chose to put us outside under that too-bright sky.
DeClayre: Please make yourself comfortable. Otto will attend to us presently.
Caption: I could have pulled out a hat or eyeshades, or asked to convene indoors.
Panel 2
DeClayre and Diana are seated at the table. Otto approaches. Otto looks like a 14-year-old boy, which he in fact is. Blond and just a bit rounded.
Caption: But I didn't want to betray a weakness at first meeting.
DeClayre: We have a specialty beverage, a mango-citrus sparkler, produced from our own farm.
DeClayre: Would you like to try some with me? It's very refreshing.
Panel 3
The drinks have been delivered … Diana and DeClayre each have a glass, and there's a half-empty pitcher of same on the table. Otto stands by, staring at Diana. She doesn't seem to notice.
Caption: Shortly:
DeClayre: She disguised herself as a human? That's … generally frowned upon here.
Diana: So I've learned. But obviously it was necessary for her task.
Diana: Rob … Arti-folk are a separate, ruling elite on my homeworld.
Panel 4
Same shot, as Diana sips her drink.
DeClayre: And Alyss thought she could fix that all by her lonesome?
DeClayre: Mind you, I adore Alyss Roaz but sometimes she falls into hubris.
Caption: I must admit, I liked Lorelei right off the bat.
