Story & Art: Scott Bieser - Sci-Fi Adventure Monday & Thursday.
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 successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 247
Panel 1The trio begin walking towards the apartment.
Hari: Orcus?
Seamus: Well, more like the Emperor PoYi, I suppose, but ...
Panel 2
Closer 3-shot; Seamus and Hari are looking suddenly a bit downcast.
Hari: I think you mean Pu Yi, the last Chinese emperor ...
Seamus: Um, yes. I'm afraid our absent friend Po Xu-Ke has been on my mind.
Panel 3
Medium close-up on Hari.
Hari: I'd heard about Po's death.
Hari: I don't know whether that situation was more sad, or strange.
Hari: Did he really refuse rejuvenation?
Panel 4
The trio are now inside the apartment, in a living room. A butler has appeared with a serving tray, and Hari sets his now-empty drink glass on it.
Seamus: In fact he did.
Seamus: And it is odd, in that he'd always reveled in being the System's oldest person.
Hari: Maybe he decided that life's a bitch, and he wanted a divorce.
