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.
Panel 1
Nicole and Seamus and their luggage emerge from a corridor into a busy, open concourse.
Nicole: So, what do you think?
Seamus: I think someone tried to take a peek but didn't have time to get at the goods before I raised an alarum.
Panel 2
Nicole and Seamus approach a taxi stand.
Nicole: What if they'd been fast enough?
Seamus: Then I'd have to write off those projects.
Panel 3
The board a cab, which is a bit larger than its egg-shaped counterpart on Mercury. More passenger room, moves about on four impellers rather than magnetism.
Seamus: By the time we've completed the … project I hired you for, we'd be seeing grav sensors and electro-shields for sale in every shopfront.
Panel 4
The cab rises into the traffic lanes, which have a mix of sedan-sized flyers, personal Bubbs like Nicole's, and some freight carriers.
Nicole (from cab): Why lug this gear around, then?
Seamus: To test it, and because … I'll tell you later.
