Sci-Fi Adventure Monday & Thursday.
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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Transcript For Strip 517
Panel 1Same scene, now Tong Xie-Po comes walking up the hallway.
Peng-Bo: And right on queue, here comes our host.
Seamus: How are you holding up, Xie-Po?
Panel 2
Three-shot: Peng-Bo, Xie-Po, Seamus. Xie-Po looks aged.
Xie-Po: I have told the staff to end the party and send the guests away.
Xie-Po: Of course, you two are special guests, so I thought I should bid you good-bye personally.
Panel 3
Closer 3-shot: Peng-Bo and Seamus look a bit uncomfortable, as Xie-Po looks at Seamus with a bit of a hopeful expression.
Xie-Po: Unless, of course, there is any chance we could still do our deal.
Peng-Bo: Well, actually ...
Seamus: It was not possible for Mr. Peng-Bo to purchase your shares, so I sold him a larger share of a more mature project.
Panel 4
Xie-Po looks even more crestfallen than before. Seamus lays a comforting hand on his shoulder.
Xie-Po: I ... see. So I end the day with nothing but failure ...
Seamus: The day is not over yet, Xie-Po.
Seamus: Mr. Peng-Bo, if you will please excuse us?
