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.
Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun! [ Nov 10, 2024 ]
Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).
The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

Unfortunately Mitch still has almost another year to complete his revivification, as he had chosen to have a biological body made to his exact specifications. I think Lorelei would have preferred to have him there with her if it were possible, because she complained privately about being inundated with date requests and even marriage proposals.
All of the destoyed Spheres have been re-built, although the process of restoring the buildings and social networks within them, and elsewhere in the City, has a good long ways to go.
Sheldon reports that psychological counselors are still keeping extremely busy treating all the PTSD among the people. The addition of 12 new counselors who had fled the city early on has not helped, as people strongly prefer to work with those who had lived through the fighting
Panel 2
We see Alyss in her comfy chair, ‘dictating’ her memoirs. The text appears in the space above her.

Alphonse: It was impossible to hold them back any longer.
