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.
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!
Transcript For Strip 570
Panel 1Seamus, Vedadi and Nicole in the viewing room.
Vedadi: Look, the captain wants to make sure that all of Ms. Murphy's repairs are covered by the settlement money.
Seamus: They have been, yes.
Panel 2
Now Vedadi looks into the room where Murphy is being worked on. In the foreground we can see a couple of the techs, some cables and equipment in the main chamber.
Vedadi: I'm no expert, mind you, but it looks like you're doing a lot more than restoration here.
Seamus: Yes, I've ordered some upgrades, at my own expense.
Panel 3
Vedadi bows to Seamus, who is now looking intently through the glass and touching two fingers to his temple. Nicole looks like she'd like to kick his backside but is restraining herself.
Vedadi: Yes, well then ...
Vedadi: When she emerges please extend to her the captain and crew's heart-felt apologies.
Nicole: Yeah, we'll do that.
Panel 4
Seamus lays an arm across Vedadi's shoulders, effectively holding him in place.
Seamus: If you'll stick around for just a few minutes, you can apologize to her yourself.
Seamus: It looks like the techs are finishing up.
