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
Vanessa and Nicole in the ladies' room.
Vanessa: For most scientists, life is all about laboratories and endless, incremental experimentation, and publishing in journals.
Vanessa: But Seamus is a different kind of scientist.
Panel 2
Medium close-up on Vanessa.
Vanessa: Seamus approaches science by jumping in with both feet, grabbing Nature by the throat and throttling the truth out of her.
Vanessa: As a result his discoveries are often quite game-changing.
Panel 3
Vanessa begins to leave.
Vanessa: My advice is to stick with him – you'll be learning from a grand master of the field.
Vanessa: I think it's time to head back.
Panel 4
Vanessa, now standing before one of the stalls – one hand is poking through the membrane-door of the stall, the other is on her belly. Vanessa grins as she exits.
Nicole: I'll be right out … but I actually have to go.
Vanessa: I'm sure we'll find something to talk about.
