Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
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!

Otto: Can we change the subject?
Panel 2
Closer 3-shot on Bok, Zander, Otto.
Bok: Don't tell me you're still hung up on Diana.

Panel 3

Bok (to Zander): Zander, she totally cold-fished him.

Otto: She's in love with that damn house! How can I compete with a house?
Zander: I dunno, get a bigger house?
Panel 4
Similar shot
Bok: It's not the structure. It's Monty, the A.I. the house, uh, houses.
Bok: He's also a Puma, a Panda, a Python, a Porcupine, and a really well-put-together android.
Zander: You're not competing with a house, you're competing with a menagerie.
