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.
Deadline Extended, Oh My! [ Nov 29, 2021 ]
We've extended our Indiegogo campaign to raise money to print a maximum of 500 copies of the hard bound, full color, deluxe edition of the alt-history adventure: Roswell, Texas. We figured folks might need a little more time to get in on what is sure to be a highly collectable collectable. And one hell-of-a coffee table conversation starter.
Stay tuned for more announcements!
Transcript For Strip 2292
Panel 1Cut to: Li in negotiation with two managerial types looking over a large holo-diagram in the center of a round table. Li speaks from a cameo.
Li: I was good at scrounging resources and setting up deals, arranging supply chains.
Li: I had spent more than 300 years establishing the needed contacts.
Panel 2
Now Li is conferring with two other floor-manager types at some factory. Large machinery in the background.
Caption: ‘I traded Yttrium and Dysprosium for Neodymium and pig iron for the ferro-fabber who used some of it to make updated machinery for the farmers on other worlds still willing to sell food to us.’
Panel 3
In some concourse, Li is confronted by a needle-nosed fellow in dark clothes. Li is noticing that two very wide-shouldered men dressed similarly have come up behind him.
Caption: ‘By and by my efforts came to the attention of the enemy.’
Needle-nose (quietly, small letters): Your presence is requested.
Panel 4
Needle-nose leads Li down a corridor, with the two enforcers close behind.
Caption: ‘I’ve gotten out of much hairier situations before, and since.
Caption: ‘But this was my chance to probe the enemy for weaknesses.’
