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
Diana continues asserting herself.
Diana: And what's with this 'missing' business? I saw him less than 20 hours ago. And already the search party is out?
Agent Verdana: We received a distress alert from Sr. Gómez at 15:02 yesterday evening, but have not been able to contact him since then.
Panel 2
Diana blinks for a moment, and Tieman takes advantage.
Caption: I blinked for a moment and betrayed myself.
Diana: A distress alert ...
Agent Tieman: Haven't you called him since you found your place in a shambles?
Panel 3
Diana is staggered a bit, trying to recover.
Diana: I … I did try, several times! Got no response.
Diana: But he's gone incommunicado for two or three days at a time before.
Diana: It wasn't unusual so much as annoying.
Panel 4
Diana holds a couple of fingers up to her temple as she accesses something in her implant.
Diana: But then why didn't you try to call me … oh wait.
Diana: Several missed calls while I was asleep. Why didn't you leave a message?
Agent Tieman: We tried. Did you ever set up your voice-mailbox?
