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 2164
Panel 1Cut to Alyss' office, where she is joined by Francisco da Costa. They are pouring over more than a dozen screens scattered over a table.
Alyss: So what does your analysis leave us with?
Francisco: {sigh} Still 47 corporations who may benefit most directly from the first attack, and have the skills and resources to pull it off.
Panel 2
Different angle on Alyss and Francisco.
Alyss: This elimination process isn't eliminating enough.
Francisco: Agreed. But since Sergio sent Albert off on a hunting expedition, my own resources are limited.
Alyss: Have you got any intel from your business contacts abroad?
Panel 3
Yet another angle on Alyss and Francisco. They react to a familiar sound.
Francisco: Only some hints and rumors.
Francisco: Astralcamph-Metapol had a major turnover in their directorate. The new crew is younger and rather brash.
Francisco: But then … eh?
SFX: Wheeze-Rnup Wheeze-Rnup
Panel 4
Looking past Alyss and Francisco, Hugo Galvéz and Murphy emerge from their cylindrical hopper which has materialized nearby.
Alyss: You're late.
Hugo: Sorry, Alyss, but time-management has never been my strong suit.
Francisco: You could get a better suit, you know.
