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.
Not Safe [ Apr 24, 2022 ]
Starting Monday 4-25-2022, with part 3 of QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War, each strip installment has been extended to have six panels rather than four. We believe this will enable a smoother, fuller story flow for the reader. We will also be limiting uploads of QUANTUM VIBE to one installment per week so Scott has time to develop a new spin-off strip, Not-Safe.
Not-Safe will be a NSFW strip set in the Assimulation galaxy depicted in Volume 5, with Eithne Lamdagan as the central character. Our hope is it will bring in enough money so Scott can hire a colorist again and he can start producing more QUANTUM VIBE strips. More info coming soon.
Transcript For Strip 1771
Panel 1Re-establishing shot of the upper-level balcony, with Lauren, Diana and Otto.
Diana: So, did this all-business, asexual gynoid have any sort of social life?
Lauren: None … well, I take that back. There was an android who called on her here a few times.
Caption: An android? Can you describe him?
Panel 2
Flash-back scene showing Hayami standing in a gateway, talking to the android. It has a masculine aspect but it's not particularly sexy. Lauren again speaks from a cameo.
Lauren: He was … barely a 'he,' really. A utilitarian design, made for industrial work, perhaps.
Lauren: He only came around a half dozen times. Sometimes they just had a brief conversation at the estate, but on two occasions she went off with him.
Panel 3
Back to the present, Lauren and Diana.
Diana: Did she never tell you who he was?
Lauren: Just 'a friend,' she said. I didn't choose to pry.
Diana: Without a name or image I don't have any way to find him.
Panel 4
Lauren laughs. Diana is getting really irritated by Otto's fixation on her.
Lauren: Oh, I have security recordings of every visitor. I'll have the relevant segments sent to you.
Diana: So we're being recorded now?
Lauren: Of course. Someone in my position can't be too careful, you know.
