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.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 227
Panel 1Seamus and Nicole till at the bank agent's desk. The agent is handing Nicole a tab (2.5x3.5cm strip of dark plastic).
Agent: Here is your tab loaded with 2000 miltons. You can use this with any licensed merchant on Luna.
Panel 2
Medium c/u of Nicole holding the tab, looking at it dubiously.
Nicole: Not to sound like a yokel, but, is this thing secure?
Agent (OP): Oh, absolutely.
Panel 3
Medium close-up of the agent, trying to look reassuring.
Agent: It only allows transfers when it can detect your right thumb-print as you hold it.
Agent: So, it's perfectly safe to carry around.
Panel 4
Three-shot of Seamus, Nicole and agent. Seamus speaks up, Nicole looks wide-eyed, the agent looks uncomfortable.
Seamus: Unless, of course, the thief steals your thumb in addition to your tab.
Agent: Heh-heh. I assure you, that hardly ever happens.
