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.)
Panel 1 – split panel
In an inset panel, we see Montoya pull off his half-cloak while his face transforms back to its true appearance. In the main panel, we see him seating himself in the cab again, the cloak wrapped around this valice and wearing more masculine clothing. The drive does a double-take.
Montoya: Is there a place I can rent a car or bike close-by?
Driver: Lady, I told you … huh?
Panel 2
Montoya and the driver in the cab.
Driver: Hey, where's the woman?
Montoya: Woman? Oh, she ran off hissing and spitting like a wet cat.
Montoya: What was her problem?
Panel 3
The Driver turns to his console, choosing to drop the matter.
Drive: Oh, nothing. There's a bike rental place I know about three kilometers from here.
Montoya: Then please take me there, and double your fare if you make it in less than two minutes.
Panel 4
Albert is riding away from Ploog Hoverbikes on a 'bike' – a hovercraft one rides like a motorcycle.
Caption: Seven minutes later:
Montoya (thought): Signal's still clear, and still moving! Good.
Montoya: Should only take me another 15 minutes or so to catch up.
