Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
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 2296
Panel 1Cut back to Bok and Li in Li’s ship.
Bok: Geez, your whole family? Talk about vindictive.
Li: My first impulse was to kill that bastard on the spot.
Panel 2
Back to Li in the lion’s den, thinking furiously. We can see the two Enforcers behind him.
Caption: ‘But reason set in and I realized that I’d be unable to protect Nicole … that is, Alyss, or our kids, if I was killed there and then for my trouble.
Caption: ‘So … I played along, looking for an opening.’
Panel 3
Li and Barnhill.
Li: I … would need some time to get my family in the city to safety.
Barnhill: Of course. But don’t wait too long.
Barnhill: Send me the codes when you’re ready to evacuate.
Panel 4
The two enforcers are now standing either side of Li.
Li: You’re … remarkably trusting.
Barnhill: As I’ve explained, our victory is virtually guaranteed, either way.
Barnhill: But don’t take more than three days, or my trust will falter.
Li: My guards will see you out.
