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
New scene: Diana, Sergio Cooper, and Alyss are sitting at a table with William I. Montoya, the serpentine advogado.
Caption: It was almost another day before I was found, rescued, revived, and so forth.
Caption: But it wasn't over yet. Folks here don't generally favor armed assaults like the one Alyss and Sergio launched on my behalf.
Diana: Wait … they kidnapped me, beat John nearly to death, murdered Hayami and we're the ones on the hook?
Panel 2
Medium c/u on Montoya.
Caption: William I. Montoya had likewise cut ties with Smith & Holder and now worked for Alyss and Sergio.
Montoya: Oh, we'll be filing our claims against their claims.
Montoya: Senhora Roaz' charge that the RPLD was laying groundwork for an invasion is going to be a tough sell, however.
Montoya: There's no law against developing a competing portal system.
Panel 3
Diana, Alyss, Sergio.
Alyss: Just making the claim formally can help us. Even if the arbiters reject the claim, the public is not going to like the idea At. All.
Sergio: Making claims you can't back up, can back-fire on us. We'll look like liars. We need hard data.
Panel 4
Medium close-up on Diana, cracking her knuckles with palms forward.
Diana: Well, now that I know what I'm looking for, I think I can find what we need.
Diana: I'm gonna make those creeps wish they'd killed me when they had the chance.
