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
Cut back to deCastries' office, where deCastries is confronting the image of Alyss.
Alyss: I've placed an Oresme shield around your building, so there'll be no sneaking her out via Displacer.
DeCastries: This is OUTRAGEOUS! Property rights are sacrosanct in this city!
Panel 2
Different angle on Alyss and DeCastries. We can see Alyss' battle-cruiser outside his window.
Alyss: So are sapient lives, Claude.
Alyss: Now, do you want to do this the easy way, or the hard way?
Panel 3
Outside the DeCastries building, several new ships pop into position between Alyss' armada and the building, each of them oriented towards the armada.
DeCastries (from buidling): For me, this is the easy way.
DeCastries: Now, back off before things get bloody.
Panel 4
On the command deck of Alyss' ship, the Eva Jeanne, Alyss grins an evil grin.
Alyss: You poor sap, you really don't know who you're dealing with, do you?
DeCastries (elect): Er, aren't you Alyss Roaz?
