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 2243
Panel 1Cut to: Exterior, entrance to the local Callahan's Bar Y Parilla
Caption: That evening:
Lester (from inside): Is that all you're having to eat?
Panel 2
Inside, looking downward at Diana and Lester at their table. A small chrysanthemum in a skinny vase decorates. Diana has a small plate with a few specks of food on it; Lester has a bigger plate holding a half-rack of pork ribs, smothered in sauce, a mostly-eaten blob of potato salad, and a bit of something that looks like steamed okra. He's munching on another rib at the moment.
Diana: That's all, thank you. I'm afraid I'm a very light eater.
Diana: Now, you mentioned something about a gateway?
Panel 3
Diana watches as Lester glances about in several directions.
Lester (soto voce) : Keep your voice down, ok?
Lester: You must swear to me that nothing I'm about to say leaves this table.
Panel 4
Both are speaking soto voce
Diana: I'll keep quiet but I can't speak for the chrysanthemum. It looks sketchy .
