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.
Not Safe [ Apr 24, 2022 ]
Starting Monday 4-25-2022, with part 3 of QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War, each strip installment has been extended to have six panels rather than four. We believe this will enable a smoother, fuller story flow for the reader. We will also be limiting uploads of QUANTUM VIBE to one installment per week so Scott has time to develop a new spin-off strip, Not-Safe.
Not-Safe will be a NSFW strip set in the Assimulation galaxy depicted in Volume 5, with Eithne Lamdagan as the central character. Our hope is it will bring in enough money so Scott can hire a colorist again and he can start producing more QUANTUM VIBE strips. More info coming soon.
Panel 1
Scene change. In a darkened office, a silhouetted figure removes a vial from a small package.
Caption: Meanwhile, somewhere in Bubbleopolis:
Figure (thinking): Damn. It had to be the Cytomax.
Figure: Cheap bastards couldn't send me something softer.
Panel 2
The figure, whose identity remains hidden, loads the vial into a hypo-injector.
Figure: Bad enough this goes against every reason I went into this business.
Figure: But if I'm found out, I'll be lucky if I'm only indentured for a century.
Panel 3
The silhouetted figure exits the office. We can see she's female.
Figure: But … what other choice do I have?
Figure: I signed Trudeau's contracts and now that fink has me over a barrel.
Panel 4
The silhouetted figure now approaches the bed in the sanatório where patient Jane Doe 1782 lay comatose. The lighting is subdued.
Figure: I mean, this poor thing, whoever she is, can't be anyone important.
Figure: But she must be, somehow, otherwise why would anyone want her dead?
