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
Looking past Alyss at the other four Pillars, all giving frosty gazes in Mordy's direction.
Alyss: I appreciate your candor but I think we prefer to maintain our 'roles,' as you put it.
Alyss: Now, do you have anything USEFUL to show us?
Panel 2
Mordy is reaching into a jacket pocket.
Mordy: Well, I wasn't supposed to do this, but ...
Mordy: … I think this would be a show of good faith ...
Panel 3
Angle to include Alyss and Mordy. He's holding forth something that looks like a 1-carat diamond mounted on a golden ring.
Mordy: This data crystal holds a trove of information about that we have concerning the 'Society for Justice.' Names and locations.
Mordy: I trust you will keep this information confidential, as it reveals sources and methods.
Panel 4
Now Alyss is holding the crystal, and along with the other pillars gazes in wonder at the unexpected prize.
Mordy (OP): Don't thank me all at once.
