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!

Panel 1
Diana continues her story: Flashback shows Diana getting intensely scanned/examined by a bank officer and a pair of techs.
Diana: So once back in the city I was able to get in touch with a … ah … client who owes me a solid and I had enough to live while I put my life back together again.
Diana: Getting access to my bank accounts was an incredible ordeal.
Panel 2
Alyss and Diana
Alyss: If you've ever had your identity stolen you'd understand why.
Diana: Granted. But once I got my accounts re-secured I could focus on replacing my implant.
Diana: Not to mention, paying back the debts I'd taken on getting re-established.
Panel 3
Alyss and Diana, Alyss has grasped Diana's hand in hers, affectionately.
Alyss: Diana, it's been 46 days since the 'Godstrike'.
Alyss: You couldn't have contacted me sooner? I could've helped ...
Diana: Alyss, do you have any idea how hard it is to get through to you?
Panel 4
Alyss and Diana. Alyss is looking bemused.
Alyss: Now that you mention it, yeah, I need my gatekeepers. Sorry about that.
Diana: Michael was the absolute worst. For days he teased with me, pretended to listen, put me on hold, put me off – like, like …
Alyss: … Like a cat toying with a mouse?
