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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Transcript For Strip 32
Panel 1At the L-5 City spaceport, a bustling concourse of people from around the System. Nicole stands near a gate bearing a sign Alpine Dream: Helios Base, looking around anxiously. She has next to her a smallish carry-on-type bag, which rolls on small wheels. (On a nearby support column we see one of the ubiquitous gravity-level signs. This one reads 'EG3'.)

Panel 2
Seamus strides rapidly into the frame, towards the gate. Nicole has hands on hips, looking askance at him.
Nicole: Boarding began 20 minutes ago!
Seamus: {gasp} Yes, I'm late. {wheeze} Sorry, couldn't be helped {gasp}
Panel 3
As Seamus strides past Nicole, we see three full-sized suitcases-on-wheels following in his wake. Nicole takes notice of them.
Seamus: {gasp} {wheeze} {gasp}
Panel 4
Nicole falls into line behind the last large suitcase, her own carry-on following her. She looks really annoyed.
Seamus: {wheeze} Didn't I say to pack light? {gasp}
Seamus: The spaceliner charges by the kilogram. {wheeze}
