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
Hugo, Murphy and Eithne walking through a CS corridor.
Eithne: How likely is it that we can talk Theo out of his agenda? Get him to give up the Cush and return home with you?
Murphy: I'd say, extremely unlikely.
Hugo: He's entirely single-minded, now.
Panel 2
The trio descends to the hangar deck in CS's gravity beam.
Murphy: We've managed to keep our distance, persuading him that we are gathering intelligence on the Community, while in fact searching for you.
Hugo: But also gathering intelligence. We had to keep feeding him reports.
Hugo: But with your ship's arrival I have no doubt he will show up very quickly.
Panel 3
As the trio approaches the hangar exit, they find a dour-looking Theo standing in the doorway.
Theo: Perhaps not quickly enough. It appears now you have been keeping secrets from me.
Theo: This young companion of yours, for example.
Theo: And how it is she came to be in command of a rogue Cush Icoship.
