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.
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!
Transcript For Strip 2237
Panel 1Mordy gestures towards his office door. We can see one of Greta's security guards behind him. (They've both always been there, being as unobtrusive as possible when not needed.)
Mordy: In fact, the next test is scheduled for a mere 10 minutes from now.
Mordy: Have no fear, great advances have been made.
Mordy: If you will walk with me, we can go and observe together.
Panel 2
Mordy and Greta walk side-by-side through the hallway, the security guards in tow.
Greta: You've got the set-up right here in this building?
Mordy: It's the only place we can fully shield against scans without arousing undue suspicion.
Mordy: We leave nothing to chance.
Panel 3
They pass a security checkpoint (a desk with two bored-looking guards)
Mordy: By the way, are your guards cleared for Level 9 info?
Greta: They're level 8 but I'm issuing an executive override.
Greta: There is no way you're separating me from my security.
Panel 4
Greta gives Mordy the side-eye as they continue.
Mordy: You're as safe here as you are in your office on Shārén.
Greta: My guards are never far from me there, either.
Mordy: I guess things haven't changed much at home.
