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.
Goal Reached! [ Dec 11, 2024 ]
We reached our goal and then some. We want to thank all of our backers for helping us reach and surpass our goal. We also want to take this time to thank everyone who has contributed to supporting our strip by buying our books and reading the strip regularly so we can earn a little advertising revenue.
Because we set this up as a flexible campaign, anyone wanting to back this campaign and get a perk can do so through this Friday. For those of you still interested in backing our campaign, click on this link or on the picture to visit our campaign!
Panel 1
Nicole walks over to where her holo-beret is laying on the ground, picks it up. We can see Buford and Ventura in the background.
Nicole: Another question I have is ...
Nicole: How the hell did Ma-Bo Nu know where to find us?
Nicole: Ventura,do you have some kind of tracker on you?
Panel 2
Two-shot of Nicole and Ventura. Nicole is placing the beret on her head. The medium-length curls re-appear.
Ventura: My owner has one in me, in case a rental customer fails to return me.
Nicole: That doesn't explain how Ma-Bo was able to find us.
Nicole: Can you do a self-scan, and see if you have a second tracking device?
Panel 3
Nicole is picking up the two shopping bags that had been dropped in the fight earlier. Ventura is in the foreground, with a sort of glazed look in her eyes (she's looking inward).
Ventura: Uhm ... huh. Yes, there's a second beacon.
Nicole: Can you turn it off? Or remove it?
Panel 4
Close 3-shot of Buford, Nicole and Ventura. Ventura looks a bit embarrassed.
Ventura: I can't deactivate it, and I'll need some help to remove it.
Ventura: It's located in -- a rather inconvenient place.
