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 33
Panel 1At the gate in front of the airlock to the spaceliner, Seamus stands with his luggage on a marked section of floor. Nicole stands close-by. The gate attendant looks at her Screen with eyebrows raised. Seamus is not amused.
Attendant: You are -er- 175 kilos over-limit, Dr. Murtagh. I'm afraid we'll have to charge you for the overage.
Seamus: Yes, yes.
Panel 2
As Seamus walks into the airlock, his suitcases trailing behind 3 abreast now, it's Nicole's turn to stand on the marked section with her carry-on bag. The attendant just waves her on.
Attendant: Oh, pfft. You're 55 kilos under limit. Go on aboard and have a safe flight.
Panel 3
Seamus and Nicole make their way along a corridor just wide enough to accommodate the large man.
Nicole: Not to belabor the obvious, but you're bringing six times as much baggage as I am.
Panel 4
Seamus has to turn sideways as he progresses, to allow a ship's steward to squeeze past going the other way. Nicole is blushing a bit in response to his remark.
Seamus: {mmph} Two of those cases are full of equipment I'll be needing.
Seamus: As for the third, well, as everyone has clearly noticed, I'm a great deal larger than you are and my clothing needs more space.
