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.
Panel 1
Wayne's limo (a very sleek, ground-effect hovercar) roars through the streets of Brussels. The streets are drab and thick with humanity but otherwise clean. The people are stoop-shouldered, like the Arsociate in the previous strip.
Wayne (in limo): This is Wayne Bobinardi.. Yes, the Exec with GENSAXWAL. What is the departure time for the Mercury Rising?
Panel 2
Inside the limo, Wayne is focused on his tele-convo and not paying attention to the street scene passing by.
Wayne: I need the departure held for an hour.
Wayne: I was unavoidably delayed in Brussels.
Panel 3
Truck the camera forward so we see the limmo driver, this one an android. Wayne can be seen in silhouette through the glass separating the driver section from the passenger section.
Wayne: Tell the captain I do not care about his launch window, I cannot possibly reach the Beanstalk Summit before 1700 local time.
Panel 4
Another exterior shot of the limo continuing its mad dash down the drab street.
Wayne: Tell him GENSAXWAL will cover the extra fuel cost, and I will personally make it worth his while.
