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!
Panel 1
We can see Diana's disguised flyer coming in for a landing near the now-grounded quarry's flyer. A figure is silhouetted standing next to it.
Diana (from flyer): This is such a pain in the ass, like I have time to deal with this nonsense.
Wook: Do you know this person? He looks a bit familiar.
Panel 2
Reveal shot of Otto Sullivan standing next to his flyer, looking cheerful.
Diana (OP): That's Otto Sullivan. He works for Lorelei Wodenstar deClayre, who you've met.
Diana: As for the resemblance, well, I checked and he's a second-cousin.
Diana: A sweet kid, really, but not terribly bright.
Panel 3
Diana walks up to Otto, with Wook close behind. Diana is not looking cheerful. Otto looks dismayed by this.
Diana: Following me, eh? I thought I'd defeated your tracking devices.
Otto: Tracking --? Uh, yes, well, Lorelei said she was concerned for you.
Otto: That's why she had me and other staff out trying to find you.
Panel 4
Diana angrily points at her right forearm. Now Otto looks shocked.
Diana: Your dear cousin was so concerned for me she embedded a tracker in my busted arm!
Otto: Oh … oh my gosh! I had no idea!
Diana: Uh-huh. Well, it's gone now, just like I want you and everyone else associated with deClayre gone from my life, got it?
