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 2103
Panel 1Now Montoya is walking down a somewhat darker urban corridor. He approaches a shop-front with the sign, 'Ye Cloak and Dagger.'
Montoya (thought): I keep running into these stories but nothing that can be corroborated.
Montoya: And that was the third threat alert I've received on this trip.
Montoya: Well, in for a penny, in for a pound, as someone said.
Panel 2
Montoya strides quietly across the room, several people visible. Most of them have eyes on him and he is very aware of them.
Montoya (thought): Most of the people here know me, and that's fine, because I know most of them, too. I've brokered many a deal here.
Montoya: It's the ones I don't know who worry me.
Panel 3
Montoya approaches the bar. The bartender is a sour-faced beltape.
Montoya (thought): This bartender, for instance. He's new.
Montoya (aloud): Good day, sir. What do you have that's good?
Bartender: Good?
Panel 4
The bartender shrugs, and Montoya frowns.
Bartender: It's all good, depends on your taste. What can I get for you?
Montoya: Uh, I'll have a rum and sweet-tea.
Montoya (thought): NOT the right response. Who is this guy?
