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 Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
Panel 1
Now 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?
