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
Alyss reacts to Rico (Enrique and Kofi between them)
Alyss: Sheldon, the Crisis Committee is already getting a bit unwieldy. You want to more than double its size?
Alyss: We'll spend almost all our time in meetings.
Rico: That is a terrifying thought.
Panel 2
Shift focus to put Rico on the left, and Verdura.
Rico: What I have in mind is an Action Force that can coordinate with our efforts.
Rico: Organize yourselves however you think best.
Rico: I volunteer to be the liaison between you and the Pillars.
Panel 3
Now focus on the Pillars, who are looking agreeably intrigued.
Rico (OP): If the Pillars agree, of course, I will meet with the Action Force as soon as it is formed and I can brief them and we can work out some protocols.
Alyss: Sounds like a plan to me.
Panel 4
Alyss and Stauder are reaching across the table and shaking hands, as Rico appears very satisfied.
Alyss (thought-send): Thanks for the interception, Sheldon.
Sheldon (thought-send): I'll keep them busy and out of your hair and who knows, they might actually be helpful.
