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.
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 2295
Panel 1Barnhill laughs at Li.
Barnhill: Hahahahaha! Is that not obvious? We are building a universal hegemon.
Barnhill: Your thriving anarchy is inspiring imitations across the known universe, and we can’t have that.
Barnhill: But what you should worry about is what we want from YOU.
Panel 2
Barnhill and Li
Barnhill: You can save a lot of lives and avoid a great deal of needless destruction.
Barnhill: Give us the codes to get through your Oresme shields.
Barnhill: We’ll send in enough troops that most of your people would see the futility of resistance, and we’ll have peace.
Panel 3
Li and Barnhill
Li: I think you underestimate Novo Paoloans’ determination to live free, Barnhill.
Barnhill: They are not the only ones at stake here, Senhor Situ.
Barnhill: Consider your children and grandchildren, scattered across 17 galaxies.
Panel 4
Li is frozen in alarm mixed with rage at Barnhill’s next words.
Barnhill: Yes, we have located all of them. And they are not so well-protected.
Barnhill: And I promise you, if we have to take your city the hard way, your lovely wife, if she survives, will be executed as an intergalactic criminal.
Barnhill: Naturally, we’ll have a trial, but you know how that will go, don’t you?
