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
Still in Mr. Kolk's office, looking past Graves towards Mr. Kolk. There is a holoscreen more or less between them, on which we see the images of Nicole and Seamus.
Kolk: We have word that Dr. Seamus O Murchadha will be visiting Luna – and this very city – arriving in just under three weeks' time.
Graves: Looks like O Murchadha is a big man in science . Heh-heh.
Panel 2
Exterior view of the tower containing the office we've been in, with it's large hemispherical window. We see the city skyline behind it, and beyond that. The a crater rim and a bit of exposed Lunar surface. Unlike in Tycho City, it's daytime here.
Kolk: He's over 350 and our intel has it that his last rejuv went awry.
Kolk: He may be visiting a specialist here in Aldrinopolis to deal with that.
Panel 3
Looking across the desk towards Graves – we still see the holoscreen with Seamus and Nicole's faces on them, only reversed.
Graves: Who's the chickie with him?
Kolk: His assistant. Apparently she also became a minor celebrity when she flew a HelioFlyer under the Sun's corona, to carry out O Murchadha's project.
Panel 4
Medium close-up of Graves, looking up at Kolk (OP).
Graves: What's the project about?
Kolku: That's what we want you to find out, Mr. Graves.
