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.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 2052
Panel 1The Eva Jeanne and Brittany's craft are facing the remains of the mansion. It's charred, half-melted, and in several pieces. We might see a small device in the center.
Brittany (from her craft): We ID'd and gathered the pieces here, and set a stabilizer field to keep them together.
Alyss (from EJ, shaky): What … h-how did ...
Panel 2
Medium shot of Brittany, with Lester nearby.
Brittany: We estimate that in the first few seconds of the attack, temperatures in here exceeded 100,000 degrees Celsius.
Brittany: Then the explosive decompression sent all the buildings crashing into one another, and broken pieces of the Borvonite.
Panel 3
Medium shot of Alyss, looking like she wants to cry.
Brittany (OP): Believe it or not, close to 20 percent of the people here survived. They were inside some of the larger, stronger structures.
Brittany: But a lot of material – and bodies -- were ejected into space. We're still trying to account for everyone.
Panel 4
Looking at Alyss on Brittany's viewscreen.
Alyss: I'd like to inspect the ruins personally, if that's ok.
Brittany: I guess so, but wear a radiation suit. Everything here is still pretty 'hot'.
Brittany: I mean, 'hot' as in radioactive, not …
Alyss: {Sigh} I know what you mean Brittany.
