Story & Art: Scott Bieser - Sci-Fi Adventure Monday & Thursday.
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.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 396
Panel 1Buford and Nicole in center, with Hari, Seamus, George, Claud and Antigone gathered 'round.
Buford: Come wit' you? Where are you going?
Nicole: A grand tour of the Solar System – well, starting with Mars and going outward, anyway.
Panel 2
Three-shot of Seamus, Hari and George
Seamus: Ah … not that I object to the company, but travel to the outer planets is really more expensive than I can manage now.
Hari: An excellent idea – Ms. Beltran will keep Nicole out of trouble. And I'll cover the expense.
Panel 3
Three-shot of Seamus, Hari and George.
Hari: George, I assume she's 18 and threrefore legal majority, right?
George: Actually, Lunar law is a bit inconsistent on that, with regard to Beltapes. It would be best to get her parents' consent.
Panel 4
Medium 2-shot of Buford and Nicole, with Hari and Seamus (seen from behind) flanking them in the foreground. Buford is looking unsure but Nicole looks happy.
Buford: I'm pretty sure Pa won't object ...
Nicole: Then it's settled!
