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
Nicole, with her curly locks and wearing the outfit we first saw her in, half-running, half stumbling down a dark corridor.
Nicole: No! ... huff ... puff ... gasp
Panel 2
Suddenly, a giant, black, hairy, spider-like creature rises before her. It has two heads, with the faces of the two cops who had arrested Nicole.
Spider-thing: Stop resisting!
Nicole: SHRIEEEEEK!
Panel 3
Nicole is on the ground, curled into a fetal position as the spider-thing rains down dozens of blows with its numerous arms, each of which is holding a billy-club.
Spider-thing: Stop resisting!!
Nicole: AAAAAAAAAA!!!!
SFX: BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM
Panel 4
Suddenly Nicole is back in her jail cell, with her shaved head and jumpsuit, still in the fetal position but being gently cradled by Buford, who sits on the floor in front of their bunks with her. The lighting is subdued for sleeping.
Nicole: Ohhhh GOURRD! I REMEMBER! I REMEMBER!
Nicole: {SOB!}
Buford: It's okay, baby, it's over.
