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!
Panel 1
Eithne is at the workbench, hard at work running tests on a largish assembled component, as Ralf looks on. Murphy narrates from a cameo.
Murphy: Eithne and Ralf continued their shopping trek, blissfully unaware they were being followed. Finally, back at the cruiser:
Eithne: Fuck. I'm going to need two more Class 5 turpsiators.
Ralf: Back to the marketplace then?
Panel 2
Eithne looks at Ralf wearily.
Eithne: I don't want to have to put that get-up on again just to buy one item.
Ralf: Okay, I won't be gone long.
Eithne: Thanks, Ralf. But don't get junk. Quality counts.
Panel 3
Ralf looks balefully at a small number of square tokens in his hand.
Ralf: I'm supposed to buy two high-quality turpisators with five chips of aztekium.
Eithne: I'm counting on your renowned haggling ability.
Ralf: Pft. I need to have a word with my publicist.
