Story & Art: Scott Bieser - Sci-Fi Adventure Monday & Thursday.
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 successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 293
Panel 1High-angle view of everyone in the room -- the orderlies Mark and Ian, Dr. Sharkisian, the PA, and the two corpses on the blood-drenched floor. Sharkisian speaks to the two orderlies.
Sharkisian: Yes, gentlemen, while you were out getting pizza, these three Terries forced their way in and nearly killed one of our patients.
Panel 2
Medium close-up on Sharkisian -- as she pokes at her left wrist with her right index finger, her mask disappears, revealing her face.
Sharkisian: Fortunately, rather than going home this evening I stayed late in my office to catch up on financials. When the alarm went off, I was able to get here in time to avert disaster.
Panel 3
Looking past Sharkisian at the Huey and Dewey, who are looking embarrassed.
Sharkisian: Huey, get this one into the autodoc before he bleeds to death. Keep him sedated.
Sharkisian: Dewey, go find Luther, get a mop, and clean up this room.
Panel 4
Sharkisian leans wearily against a wall. In the background, the PA looks up at the doctor from her console.
Sharkisian: At least the worst is over ...
PA: Uh, maybe not, doctor. Look at these readouts.
