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!
Transcript For Strip 393
Panel 1Hari has walked up to Nicole and Seamus and is holding forth his package, starting to unwrap it.
Hari: Oh, I almost forgot – I have something for you.
Hari: George told me the swine had shaved your lovely locks ...
Panel 2
Nicole accepts what looks like a beret from Hari.
Nicole: Ah – a beret. Cool.
Hari: It's more than just a beret. It's a holo-beret.
Hari: You can access the controls with your 'Plant. It will generate whatever hairstyle you like.
Panel 3
Nicole places the beret on her head, at a jaunty angle as a beret should be worn. A mop of 15-cm-long jeri curls flows out from under the beret..
Nicole: How's this?
Seamus: That works quite well – you still have your fashion sense.
Panel 4
Nicole looks down at the rest of her body. Seamus is looking grim, Hari gives him a worried look.
Nicole: For all the good it does me. The cops broke my Anysuit when they beat me up. Fortunately I had my Sun-Diver jacket with me.
Seamus: Accounts will be settled.
