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 2182
Panel 1Diana pauses, non-plussed.
Diana: Um … you want me to track stolen property?
Diana: How is that 'under cover?'
Sergio: Your talent is finding patterns in data, connecting dots ...
Panel 2
Sergio explains
Sergio: While you're helping us track down theft rings, I want you to be looking for particular sorts of patterns.
Sergio: Patterns that indicate preparations for bomb-making, or other kinds of domestic insurgency.
Sergio: And then report those directly to me.
Panel 3
Now Diana looks intrigued.
Diana: Hmmmm. Now, there's a challenge I can dig my teeth into.
Sergio: I'm glad you understand. Go see Diedre out front, she'll direct you to personnel and get you scheduled for orientation.
Panel 4
As Sergio watches Diana depart, he gets a call from Alyss, who appears in a cameo.
Alyss (thoughtsend): So did you see her yet? How'd it go?
Sergio (thoughtsend): Better than I hoped but worse than I feared.
