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 1932
Panel 1Medium c/u on Diana, gathering her wits.
Caption: I was reeling, and had a sickening feeling that Zander might be banished to Pandemonium. So, I deflected.
Diana: Wait … Smith & Holder was hacked? How would Gianturco know about that?
Diana: And what does Alyss Roaz have to do with anything?
Panel 2
Areum, Diana and Bouissou. Bouissou's sundae is one more scoop of ice-cream smaller.
Bouissou: Oh, our two companies audit each others' cyber-security measures. It keeps us both performing optimally.
Bouissou: As for Roaz, well, who else would be so interested in what happened to the unfortunate Hayami? I assume she's bank-rolling you.
Panel 3
Diana soldiers on, as Areum looks on.
Caption: I needed to give Bouissou something else to think about.
Diana: I hoped to learn what might motivate Hayami's killer.
Diana: Turns out she's a former member of an outfit called Républicains Pour La Démocratie.
Panel 4
Now it's Bouissou's turn to look troubled. He's just taken another gulp of ice-cream, the spoon is still in his mouth.
Diana: A search of public records shows that you were also a former member.
Diana: And in fact, you both quit about the same time.
Diana: So, could there be some ... political motivation behind her murder?
Bouissou: PWTKL?
