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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.

Zondra: (thinking) This is where I find out whether the codes I stole are the correct ones.
Zondra: Ah. So far, so good.
Panel 2
Zondra is inside a small compartment, doing something to the circuitry with some tools carried in a hip-pack.
Zondra (thinking): That fool Alec still doesn't have a clue what I really wanted from him.
Zondra: Now let's see … I need to find the line for the UHF decoder bus and switch it from the scanning intermodulator to the looped multiplexor ...
Panel 3
Zondra replaces a plate covering the circuitry she was messing with.
Zondra: That blackmail business was a distraction, to keep him from thinking too much.
Zondra: Of course, the extra money doesn't hurt. I'll be having some travel expenses.
Panel 4
Zondra glides back to her spacecraft from the station.
Zondra: Maybe a few days on Nouveau Mo'orea before I settle in at Kendraxa.
Zondra: Or maybe Notsvelaga, depending how much heat I'll have to avoid.
