Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Transcript For Strip 2156
Panel 1Sergio Cooper's office. Fairly sizable, with a small conference table and a wide Screen that is currently functioning as a flow-chart. Sergio has been pondering it but is turning in response to a visitor.
Caption: Sergio Cooper's office.
Albert (OP): I thought those kind of charts went out with Microsoft Windows.
Sergio: Hello Albert. Thanks for coming so quickly.
Panel 2
Reverse view, Albert Montoya is walking up towards Sergio. Both men grinning.
Albert: Turns out I had a hole in my schedule.
Sergio: I hear there's a treatment for that.
Albert: Yeah, but it's expensive so I came to you instead.
Panel 3
Another 2-shot on Albert and Sergio.
Albert: Seriously now, what's the skinny?
Sergio: We have a lead on who might have sabotaged Perimeter Station 187.
Albert: I had a hunch that Stern kid was a patsy.
Panel 4
Reverse angle again, facing the screen. Now a double-photo of Zondra Quirós, taken from different angles and times, showing both hairstyles/hair colors.
Sergio: Goes by the name Zondra Quirós. She's been in the city for roughly 4 years.
Sergio: Gives her occupation as 'consultant.' We think she's a sexual blackmailer.
Albert: Ah, the world's third-oldest profession.
