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.

Voice: There is an object on collision course with us.
Pilot: What? How far, Cristina?

Looking past the Pilot at a monitor, on which we see the head-and-shoulders image of an attractive young woman with west European features and a tight, blonde pageboy haircut: the AI for the Cristina Kirchner
Cristina: It's only 2.337 gigameters bearing 174.044 mark 0.175 … it's small, most likely a pockrocket.
Cristing: Closing at 7.52 kilometers per second.
Panel 3
The Pilot and Cristina
Pilot: Pockrockets are automated. Send a warning to its transponder.
Cristina: Will comply … sending.
Panel 4
Medium close-up on Cristina. Her demeanor has changed subtly.
