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
Sergio, Severin, and Ajax
Sergio: Alain Severin. Our contact said you were a reasonable, uh, man.
Sergio: And absent that monster over there, you’re in charge, yes?
Severin: I … I guess so.
Panel 2
Alyss looks like she’s trying to squeeze Amelia’s head like a pimple.
Sergio (op): Looks like Alyss here is going to take your boss’ head off.
Sergio: You can escape that fate by ordering all occupation troops to surrender.
Panel 3
Back to Sergio, Severin and Ajax
Severin: Uh … ok, but ...
Severin: What is to become of us?
Ajax: We’re not barbarians. Not most of us, anyway.
Panel 4
Sergio and Severin
Sergio: You and your men will be disarmed and held prisoner for a short time.
Sergio: If you cooperate fully, most of you will be released to the IGC on Shārén.
Severin: M-most of us?
Panel 5
Cut to Alyss still choking Amelia, who might be dead already.
Sergio (OP): A lot of us have claims against your troops.
Sergio: But I suspect most of us will simply want you out of the city.
Sergio: And again, it’s not like you have a choice, is there?
Panel 6
Sergio lays a hand on Alyss’ shoulder. She’s still ‘choking’ a now-dead Amelia
Sergio: All right, it’s arranged. You can let go of the monster now.
Alyss: Already?
