Hu Iz Alyss Roaz?
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.
Not-Safe dot Kickstarter [ May 6, 2024 ]
The big news this week is that Scott is preparing to launch a Kickstarter for his other comic, the very much NSFW Not-Safe.Space.
This over-sized (8.5 x 11-inch), 48 page book contains Chapter 1 of this naughty sci-fi spin-off, featuring Eithne Lamdagan, who happens to be Alyss Roaz' 7th-great granddaughter, in case you didn't know.
The story picks up roughly 2 years after QUANTUM VIBE: Assimulation left off, as Eithne and her K'Tagon boyfriend Ralff, wander through the Galaxy of the Gamer Godz, playing as the CUSH Queen, working to re-balance a real-life RPG that her travelling companion Hugo Galvez left in a bit of a mess.
Only instead of Eithne's CUSH turning people into techno-zombies, as the Godz originally intended, Eithne wants to make them techno-Succubi/Incubi, spreading what she calls an "Erogene" factor rendering them too busy making love, to make war. And of course, Eithne gets wrapped up in her work.
The campaign will start on May 14, and the link for the pre-launch page is here.
Transcript For Strip 1310
Panel 1Alyss stands at the conference table, in front of her is a holographic image of Zytemonde, with bits of tactical gew-gaws imposed on it.
Alyss: Our culture respects sapient life, even when it was artificial, like your Central Intelligence.
Alyss: Of course, its actions in enslaving, crippling and killing your people nullify any claim it might have to a right to go on living.
Alyss: But even though we have the ability, we can't destroy it, because millions of lives still depend on its functioning.
Panel 2
Another angle on Alyss, include Elric and maybe Sargon.
Alyss: Fortunately we have other options, and that's where the risks I mentioned come in.
Alyss: In his last trip Michael was able to do a bit of electronic surveillance, and has located where the other 'misfits' are being detained.
Alyss: At least, with a high probability of accuracy.
Panel 3
Bok, Zander and Alyss.
Bok: What about my father?
Alyss: He's still in the apartment where you left him. Your aunt and Nurse Demeanor have been caring for him.
Alyss: I ... don't know what effect your disappearance has had on him.
