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 ]

Quantum Vibe: This Means War (Part 3) 30 day Indiegogo campaign.

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.

Transcript For Strip 2505

Panel 1
From a hillside, some soggy residents are waving at the Cruiser as it approaches.
Alyss (narrates from cameo): Meanwhile, Li and Julius teamed up as one of four search-and-rescue teams which Elvin had managed to enlist.
Panel 2
Aboard the cruiser, Julius assists the refugees
Alyss: They found several people in the hills beyond the flooded area. Li told me he and Julius rescued 152 men, women and children that night.
Panel 3
Li grimly watches one of his viewscreens showing floating bodies in the flood water.
Alyss: Not everyone was so lucky. Farther downstream Li started finding drowned bodies.
Alyss: He worried they’d eventually end up in the bay
Panel 4
Julius is hanging from the Cruiser in a harness, and dragging bodies onto the dry ground.
Alyss: That clever Julius rigged himself a harness, and hanging from the Cruiser on a strong line, guided or dragged the bodies onto dry ground. Li noted their locations for later retrieval.
Panel 5
Now we’re back to the present: Alyss and the kids. One of the older kids pipes up.
Kid 2 (girl): They worked all night on almost no sleep? How did they manage?
Kid 3 (boy): I’ll bet they took stimms.
Panel 6
Alyss looks mildly unhappy, side-eyes Kid 3.
Alyss: {sigh} I won’t lie to you, Dieter, they did.
Alyss: But that stuff is highly addictive, and shortens your lifespan.
Alyss: For use in emergencies only,
understand?
