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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
Panel 1
Seamus and Nicole enter their modest stateroom. The open space is 3.5 meters long by 2. meters wide; on one side a 2-level bed is recessed into the wall, next to a door leading into a small bathroom. On the other side is a large wallscreen, sandwiched between a recessed dresser and a desk/workstation. On the wall opposite the door is a small wetbar/pantry.
Seamus: Well, this is home for the next six days.
Panel 2
Nicole slides open the door to the bathroom and peers dubiously inside. Seamus pats the side of the upper bunk-bed.
Seamus: I hope you don't mind sleeping in the upper bunk.
Panel 3
Nicole has set her carry-on atop the dresser and is transferring some articles from her case into the dresser, and speaking without thinking.
Nicole: Sure. I doubt I'd sleep well with 250 kilos hanging over me.
Panel 4
Nicole looks up and notices Seamus glaring at her. She smiles nervously.
Nicole: Er, ah, no, I don't mind. Not at all.
