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.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 1865
Panel 1Cut to a lounge where Diana and Alyss are seated next to each other. As the Porcupine fusses over Diana's right arm, Alyss debriefs Diana as Areum looks on.
Caption: We moved to a more comfortable room and so while Monty fussed over my poor abused arm, I filled Alyss in on all that had happened.
Caption: It might have gone faster except for the way she peppered me with questions.
Panel 2
Alyss is looking a bit deflated. Diana's cast looks different. Areum is in the background.
Caption: Finally:
Diana: … So really, it's thanks to our trip to the Mechanic that I now have contacts in a place that could prove advantageous to us later.
Alyss: You … really have been through a lot. Especially your friend, Juan. I will of course cover his medical expenses in full.
Panel 3
Diana looks appreciative; the Panda is walking up holding a tray with a snack and drinks.
Diana: That's … good to know. He should be transferred to a different hospital, though.
Alyss: Yeah. I've trusted Smith & Holder for literally centuries.
Alyss: But they've been compromised somehow, and until we get to the bottom of this ...
Panel 4
Looking past Areum at far left into medium shot of Diana and Alyss, with the Panda walking up holding a tray with a snack and drinks.
Alyss: Oh! But I shouldn't assume 'we,' should I?
Alyss: I wouldn't blame you for bailing out at this point. Things will get even rougher.
Diana: I'm angry enough with these bastards that I'm not afraid of them anymore.
