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.

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.
