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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
Transcript For Strip 1780
Panel 1Switch view, now looking past some other heads at Diana near the back of the hall.
Caption: I'd expected to see more Coneheads here.
Caption: After all, they are the most prominent Francophones in the city, and RPLD was a Francophone movement, mostly.
Caption: I guess the Redes need updating.
Panel 2
Looking past Diana, focusing on one of the Coneheads who looks different. He is wearing a helmet and military-style attire. At the moment his attention is focused on Zéphyrine.
Caption: By and by I noticed one of the Coneheads in particular.
Caption: His full-coverage helmet was not common among Coneheads in the City.
Caption: Although with his chiseled features he made no less a striking figure than Zéphyrine.
Panel 3
Diana turns to exit the hall.
Caption: I didn't stay long. I was still recovering from being drogado, after all.
Caption: Aziz' speech just repeated the stuff I'd already read in their outreach materials.
Caption: So I decided to retire for the evening.
Panel 4
Cut back to a closer shot on the helmeted Conehead, who has turned to look towards Diana.
Caption: Well, that was the plan, anyway.
Caption: It happened that my brief visit to the RPLD meeting did not go un-noticed.
