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
Diana is pondering the key, but still has a question for Alyss.
Diana: Right. So then why are you leaving Bubbleopolis?
Alyss: You may have noticed, I've become altogether too … autocratic lately.
Alyss: Yes, even moreso than when I snatched you from Zytemonde and planted you in this city.
Panel 2
Diana is looking doubtful. But Alyss is set on her path, now walking away from the other two.
Diana: It's not like that was a bad thing.
Alyss: I need a change of scene. I've signed up with a small group that are going to colonize a system in … well, another galaxy, I'll leave it at that.
Alyss: I'll have my stuff out of here in two days.
Panel 3
Cut back to Diana and Bok at the soda shop.
Diana: And so she left town. And Monty's terms were quite favorable. I'm living in a mansion now, for a simple flat's rent.
Bok: Oh yeah? What's it like living with a Python, a Panther, a Panda, and a Porcupine all using one brain?
Panel 4
Cut again to the final panel: Diana is in bed with an android that somehow looks a great deal like John Cleese (as he was in his 30s). Both are smiling at the reader. Again, Diana is narrating the scene from a cameo window:
Diana: It's not bad at all. Quite good, in fact. Monty is very creative, and versatile.
Caption: End.
