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 178
Panel 1Vanessa and Nicole in the ladies' room.

Nicole: I – I've been thinking of quitting.
Vanessa: Really? Why?
Panel 3
Looking past Vanessa at Nicole.
Nicole: Well – it's been four weeks so far and we've hardly done any of what I think of as science stuff.
Nicole: It's mostly been escaping death, dealing death, and general intrigue.
Panel 4
Vanessa lays a hand on Nicole's shoulder.
Vanessa: Nicole, welcome to the world of high-stakes practical science.
Vanessa: You've certainly jumped into deep water, but I think you can swim.
