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.
We Made It! [ Jun 2, 2022 ]
Third try, as they say, is a charm.
The crowdfunding campaign for QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War Part 2 made its goal one day before the closing, and climbed a bit over the top in the final day.
Over the next week Scott will design the back cover and assemble the book pages for printing. We expect to have the printed books (as well as the cards and T-shirts) on hand in the second half of June and will ship them out to backers ASAP.
(The e-book version will also be released by then and we'll announce that date when we have it locked down.)
Panel 1
Claud and Nicole in the booth. Claud is sitting back, looking burnt, refilling his shot glass. Nicole looks conciliatory.
Nicole: Awright, awright, all kidding ashide, you really wanna know what my shun-dive was all about?
Claud: IM AL EARZ.
Panel 2
Looking past Claud at Nicole, as she fills her own shot glass.
Nicole: How knowlg … knowlegdy … well-vershed are you in electro-physicsh?
Claud: Uh … WEL ENUF
Panel 3
Nicole shifts into full-babble mode, filling the background with verbiage:
Nicole: We are exshploring the 'Electroplasmic Universe' theoriesh of Kravinoor Awashina, which builds on earlier work by Hannes Alfvén and Oskar Klein, who poshited that electromagnetic forshes, inneracting with plashma on coshmic shcales, better explainsh large-body movements than Einshtein's shpace-time theoriesh. We hope to eshtablish the exishtence of ambiplashma an develop a means of manufacturing it for use ash a new fuel source, 1000 times more potent than our besht fushion reactorsh. If we can do that, we can revolutionize energy production and space travel.
Panel 4
Nicole knocks back her drink. Claud looks a bit dazed.
Nicole: Do you shee the implicationsh here?
Claud: Uh … YS AI THINK AI DO.
