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 853
Panel 1In the staterooms corridor, Bill is next to Seamus, who is now curled up in a fetal position around his ruined hand. Dorothy and Mineola are running around the bend. Dorothy is carrying a first-aid kit. Bill looks up at them with relief.
Bill: Dorothy – thank Gourd! Baines crushed Seamus' hand!
Dorothy: I heard!
Seamus: {Mooooaaaaan}
Panel 2
Bill has moved back so Dorothy and Mineola can tend to Seamus.
Bill: Good thing I decided to come down here with Fred and Nelson when we got that fragment of a panic call from his 'Plant.
Panel 3
Angled view so we can see Dorothy pressing something that looks like an Epi-Pen against Seamus' neck, as Mineola pulls a roughly 6x10x15cm-square box out of the kit.
Mineola: I knew there was something off about Baines, but I didn't think he was a dangerous sociopath!
Dorothy: The most dangerous ones disguise themselves well, Mineola.
Panel 4
Angled view to include Bill in the shot. The women are looking startled. Seamus is feeling the effects of the morphine.
Bill: Hey … have you girls seen or heard from Nicole since the alert went out?
