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.
We Made It! [ Jun 2, 2022 ]
Third try, as they say, is a charm.
The crowdfunding campaign for QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War Part 2 made its goal one day before the closing, and climbed a bit over the top in the final day.
Over the next week Scott will design the back cover and assemble the book pages for printing. We expect to have the printed books (as well as the cards and T-shirts) on hand in the second half of June and will ship them out to backers ASAP.
(The e-book version will also be released by then and we'll announce that date when we have it locked down.)
Panel 1
Background switches to show the arbitrators: Andrews, Sandini, Feingold. Andrews looks completely laid back, maybe playing with a yo-yo. Sandini is all solemn. Feingold looks bored.
Bok (in cameo): De Castries and Roaz agreed for three of the most celebrated Arbiters in the city to render decisions: Harcourt Andrews, Wilson Sandini, and Jed Feingold.
Andrews: … so, we've reviewed the petitions and agreed to consolidate the various cases into Roaz et al vs de Castries et al.
Sandini: So mote it be.
Feingold: Let's get on with this.
Panel 2
Bok narrates from a cameo as de Castries' advogado, Abraham Miller, addresses the bench. Miller is a 'Tin Man,' an android with the memories and personality of a once-living human.
Bok: De Castries and company were represented by the highly-respected Advogado, Abraham Miller.
Miller: Alyss Roaz has unleashed an outrageous wave of violent assaults culminating in the vicious attack on de Castries' domain resulting in 27 casualties, with two requiring resurrections.
Miller: Also, an estimated 15.72 kilomoebits in property damage.
Panel 3
Miller continues. We can see Diana in the background, looking at him with an icy glare.
Miller: As a cover for her scheme, Roaz contracted with this young, inexperienced, so-called 'investigator,' to snoop around sowing discord and suspicion against a respectable beneficencia, Républicains Pour La Démocracie.
Miller: But don't let that sweet young face fool you … this woman is a vicious killer.
Panel 4
Miller jabs a finger for emphasis at Alyss, sitting at the defendants' table with Sergio and Diana and Montoya. Alyss mutters something.
Miller: But Senhora Martelli's crimes pail in comparison with her employers'. This illustrious founder of our city has become corrupted with power!
Miller: She thinks she can just trample over anyone who gets in her way!
Alyss (soto voce): Can't help it I got big feet.
