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 2305
Panel 1Now the citizen coming from the left is confronting the plain woman and another citizen is trotting-in from the right. At this point we can see both citizens are wearing little gold badges, but they are not otherwise uniformly dressed. Bok and Jerome continue walking away.
Bok: Maybe I can get Kāng to talk to me.
Jerome: Maybe you can, but would you report what he tells you?
Bok: Depends, you know that. We don’t burn our sources.
Panel 2
In the foreground, the plain woman slugs the first citizen with a right hook. The second citizen has his own zringer out, charging up. The commotion alerts Bok and Jerome, who have nearly disappeared into the distance.
SFX (not large): Chok
Second Citizen: Merde!.
Jerome: So long as they don’t … eh?
Panel 3
The second citizen stuns the woman with his zringer, as the first citizen recovers from the right hook. Bok and Jerome start trotting back toward them.
SFX: ZING!!
Bok: The hell – ?
Panel 4
In the foreground, the two citizens are half-supporting, half-grappling with the stunned woman as Bok and Jerome close in. A few others in the background have emerged and are looking on.
Bok: I can’t believe this … an open mugging?
Jerome: Should we intervene?
