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 2031
Panel 1Establishing shot of one of the permimeter defense stations mentioned in strip 006. A small spacecraft is parked nearby, and a suited figure is emerging.
Caption: Perimeter Station PS-187 resides in a gravitationally-stable 'Lagrange-point' within the five-star system that is home to Bubbleopolis.
Caption: The city itself, 43 million kilometers away, appears as a tiny white dot indistinguishable in the stellar background.
Panel 2
Close-up on the suited figure. We can see the face of a woman in the helmet.
Caption: The stations require regular servicing and inspection by a team of technicians.
Caption: So, this visit is not so unusual except that it is off-schedule.
Panel 3
Cut to: a bedroom scene. We see the same woman – Zondra -- carefully climbing out of bed, where a man we can recognize as Alec Stern from strip 002 lies sleeping.
Caption: 05 Septiary 1076:
Caption: The technicians know the codes required to access the stations, and work on them.
Caption: Needless to say, such information must not fall into the wrong hands.
Panel 4
The woman is in another darkened room, examining a small hand-held device resembling a smart-phone.
Caption: As those stations are vital to the city's security, these technicians are carefully vetted.
Caption: Their lovers, not so much.
