Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
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.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 2534
Panel 1Nicole and Li are settling into bed.
Narration: That night:
Nicole: {sigh} I hate this stupid forkin collar.
Li: Tomorrow we can scan you again with the autodoc and see how you’ve healed.
Panel 2
Nicole lays in her back, looking annoyed. Li is looking at a tablet.
Nicole: Well, at least I got to chat with Alexandra -- she’ll pass word about our plans.
Li: The flyer is a total loss. Should I order a four-seater to replace it?
Panel 3
Nicole and Li
Nicole: Do you think we’re being too hard on Elvin?
Li: It’s not about being too hard or not, it’s about finding a settlement that everyone can live with.
Panel 4
Nicole and Li
Nicole: You know, you’ve mellowed quite a bit since … the early days.
Li: Hammering out the Belter Compact and the treaty with the Jovian moons were invaluable life-lessons.
Panel 5
Back to the present, Alyss with her grandkids.
Beatrice: Wow, Abuelo Li was quite a remarkable man.
Junko: Why don’t you like him any more, Abuela?
Panel 6
Focus on Alyss, looking a bit uncomfortable but we can see Alphonse over her shoulder, wearing a slight smile.
Alyss: That’s … a story for another time.
