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.
Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun! [ Nov 10, 2024 ]
Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).
The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

Panel 1
Hugo and Murphy are walking up a broad concourse, on a pathway through various large machines and connecting conduits.
Caption: Three hours later:
Hugo: … fortunate that you transmitted a personal log update shortly after I departed the Causa Sui, before, ah …
Murphy: Before I was destroyed, I know.
Panel 2
The pair enter a room with several monitor screens and a pair of podia facing the largest one.
Hugo: So we know where to look for my remains.
Murphy: First, a brief shake-down cruise, ok?
Hugo: At least let me give our new ship a name.
Panel 3
They take their places on the twin podia.
Murphy: So long as it's not something ridiculous.
Hugo: Then I christen this ship, Polyphemus.
Murphy: Poly … the mythical cyclops? Why?
Panel 4
Reveal of the ship in space, twin suns in the distance. The ship is clearly much larger than Causa Sui, perhaps half a kilometer stem to stern and 2/3 of that abeam. It looks powerful. The large dish on the bow is presented, bringing the joke home.
Hugo: (from inside): Are you kidding?
