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
Diana is on her feet, nudging Sergio back with her finger jabbing at his chest.
Diana: Don't think you can pull your Jedi mind-tricks on me, buster!
Diana: I'm telling the truth and you know it!
Panel 2
Diana strides past Sergio towards the exit.
Diana: You don't want to work with me, fine!
Diana: I've made my own way before, I can do it again.
Sergio: Diana … Senhora Martelli, wait.
Panel 3
Diana pauses with a cocked eyebrow as Sergio strikes a conciliatory tone.
Sergio: I do know you're being honest, and can keep secrets.
Sergio: That's why I want you to go under cover, after a fashion.
Diana: 'Under Cover'? And just what does that mean?
Panel 4
Two-shot of Diana and Sergio.
Sergio: I want to put you in our Loss reporting section. Logging reports of stolen vehicles, machinery, treasures, and so forth, for insurance claims or recovery.
Sergio: What did you think I meant?
