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.

Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]

The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!

Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.

All of this should show up in June.

Please help Scott keep QUANTUM VIBE alive!

Transcript For Strip 483

Panel 1
The Farmer, clearly annoyed, is standing with Nicole next to a wheelbarrow full of compost. He is handing her a shovel.
Farmer: Since you seem to have trouble with the tilling, you can follow behind and spread this compost between the lines of stations.

Panel 2
Nicole is hefting a blade-full of the compost from the wheelbarrow. Meanwhile, two of the children come up behind her.
Nicole: This smells even worse than those jerks.

Panel 3
The two children push Nicole over into the wheelbarrow full of compost.
Children: Ha ha ha ha ha!
Nicole: Yowp!

Panel 4A
Medium close-up of one of the children laughing heartily.
Children: HA! NOW who smells bad?

Panel 4B
The shovel blade (we can see Nicole's compost-soiled hand on part of the handle) whacks that kid upside his head.
SFX: WHANG!
