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.
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!
Transcript For Strip 613
Panel 1Now Buford is lying on the far bed, her back to us, while Nicole sits on the near bed talking to Murphy.
Caption: Several more buicks later:
Nicole: Buford's as good a friend as they come but she's a bit of a lightweight when it comes to drinking.
Panel 2
2-shot of Murphy and Nicole.
Murphy: Amazing. She's close to 3 times your mass. How did you drink her under the table?
Murphy: And you're getting more sober by the second.
Panel 3
Medium close-up on Nicole.
Nicole: I guess in a sense I'm almost as 'artificial' as you are. Genetically engineered.
Nicole: My system metabolizes alcohol so fast I have to try really hard to get shitfaced – although when I succeed at that I feel horrible in the morning.
Panel 4
Murphy and Nicole, who is grinning mischievously.
Murphy: Then why do you bother? Seems like a lot of work for little payoff.
Nicole: I enjoy the challenge.
