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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
Panel 1
Alyss’ chair becomes a flying crash-couch as she zooms up a corridor. A hologram of Michael’s head flies along beside her.
Michael: We have four small assault craft surrounding the hangar, which is now pretty seriously damaged.
Alyss: Time to go outside, Michael.
Panel 2
Eva Jeanne pops out into a position 30 meters away from the damaged hangar. Three of the invader craft are in view. One of them is firing on the hangar.
SFX: POP!
Michael: The fourth craft is on the far side of the hangar.
Michael: Your orders?
Panel 3 A
Small inset panel: Close-up on Alyss, grim-faced.
Alyss: Fry them.
Panel 3B
Eva Jeanne’s guns blast the three visible flyers.
SFX: Multiple ZHOWs, three BWAMs
Panel 4
As Eva Jeanne swoops around the battered hangar, we see the fourth invader craft zooming away.
Michael (from ship): The fourth is running!
Alyss: Let them go. We need to get to the Shield Hall now!
