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.

Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun! [ Nov 10, 2024 ]

Quantum Vibe: This Means War (Part 3) 30 day Indiegogo campaign.

Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).

The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

Transcript For Strip 48

Panel 1
Seamus and Nicole are in the Four Wings restaurant, sitting at a table in the corner. They are dining.
Seamus: We're going to be on Mercury five days, so you'll see quite a few West Terrans here.
Nicole: Gensaxwal employees mostly, right?

Panel 2
Seamus and Nicole. Nicole eats heartily as Seamus lectures.
Seamus: All West Terrans are, one way or another.
Seamus: The same transhuman technologies we L-5ers use to transform our bodies into fanciful configurations, the Terrans use to divide themselves into social classes.


Panel 3
Seamus and Nicole, Nicole still putting it away.
Seamus: You saw two of them a short while ago.
Seamus: The Excecutives, who give the orders, and the Associates, who carry them out.

Panel 4
Nicole and Seamus.
Seamus: There are other classes – Managers, Geeks, Artisans, and you want to avoid the Checkers. Large, insanely strong, and completely humorless.
Seamus: But Associates are most common, both in the population and status.
