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. We Won.

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 1987

Panel 1
Cut to: the arbitration hearing. A panel of three judges: Arb Andrews, Arb Sandini, and Arb Feingold, sit behind a heavy table. Everyone else up front, divided into a left and right section.
Caption: The Wheels of Justice grind quickly in the City. Five days later we made our case before the arbiters. Don't make the mistake of calling them 'judges,' though. They get testy.
Arb Sandini: … therefore we find DeCastries is indebted to Juan Gómez for the full cost of his rehabilitation, plus 2,000 Moebits.
Panel 2
At the left-side litigants table, DeCastries confers with his own attorney, Ricardo Miller, who just looks tired.
DeCastries: Dammit, Miller, they're killing us here.
Miller: Hey it's not my fault that Sullivan kid was able to testify he witnessed Martelli getting taken, and heard someone mention 'Château Périlleux.'
DeCastries: No, but what is your fault is ...
Panel 3
Cut to the other table, where Montoya is looking at a pop-up holoscreen, while Diana is eavesdropping with a satisfied grin.

DeCastries (OP): … you didn't stop that little bitch from digging up all that financial dirt linking me to both Gianturco Garantia and RPLD, plus the materiel we'd laid in for when … our guests could arrive.
Miller: She used all publicly-available data sources. I couldn't stop her. Her skill at spotting patterns and connections is incredible.
Panel 4
Back to DeCastries and Miller. Miller looks even more tired.
DeCastries: Not all of those sources were public.
Miller: You mean the Metaxas kid's raiding the Smith & Holder servers?
Miller: I really didn't expect he would confess to that action, so they could submit the evidence.
Miller: I how do I deal with someone with a conscience?
