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
Buford and Nicole in center, with Hari, Seamus, George, Claud and Antigone gathered 'round.
Buford: Come wit' you? Where are you going?
Nicole: A grand tour of the Solar System – well, starting with Mars and going outward, anyway.
Panel 2
Three-shot of Seamus, Hari and George
Seamus: Ah … not that I object to the company, but travel to the outer planets is really more expensive than I can manage now.
Hari: An excellent idea – Ms. Beltran will keep Nicole out of trouble. And I'll cover the expense.
Panel 3
Three-shot of Seamus, Hari and George.
Hari: George, I assume she's 18 and threrefore legal majority, right?
George: Actually, Lunar law is a bit inconsistent on that, with regard to Beltapes. It would be best to get her parents' consent.
Panel 4
Medium 2-shot of Buford and Nicole, with Hari and Seamus (seen from behind) flanking them in the foreground. Buford is looking unsure but Nicole looks happy.
Buford: I'm pretty sure Pa won't object ...
Nicole: Then it's settled!
