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 ]
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 8
Panels 1-4The four panels put together show a larger scene in Nicole's apartment. It is completely trashed, with ripped plushies, smashed crockery and plastic knick-nacks, various liquids flung across the walls, an over turned chair, ripped-up paper. In the lower right, Nicole is lying on the sofa, her head and shoulders propped up on pillows, eating what looks like ice cream out of a quart container. Her hair is a disheveled mess, and her 'anysuit' is turned off – in its natural state it looks something like a wetsuit with elbow and knee-length sleeves and leggings. She has a dull expression and is looking at her Screen, which is now enlarged to about 80 x 45 cm and propped up on a shelf to the right of the sofa. The Screen is displaying some dramatic program.
Each Panel also contains a small inset in the upper left corner, showing the face of Nicole's boss at Audi-Chrome, who is not happy.
Panel 1
Inset: Bernie, Nicole's boss, looking preturbed.
Electronic voice: Recorded message.
Bernie: Nicole, it's Bernie. You remember, your manager at Audio-Chrome?
Panel 2
Inset: Bernie.
Bernie: You haven't shown up or called for five days!
Panel 3
Inset: Bernie, anger building.
Bernie: You've been a good employee so I'm willing to cut you some slack, but only so much.
Panel 4
Inset: Bernie, practically yelling.
Bernie: If you don't call or show up tomorrow morning with a damn good explanation, you're fired!
