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!
Panel 1
Back in the Cissonius' control cabin, different angle on Bill and Seamus. Bill is looking sideways at Seamus. Seamus is peering 'up' at the monitors.
Bill: You can just read the data off Monitor 3, here.
Seamus (thoughtsend): Sending you info on the freighter Cristina Kirchner in a data packet now ...
Panel 2
Back to medium shot of Murphy inside her pockrocket, looking focused.
Muprhy (thoughtsend): Received.
Murphy: Yes, I do have plenty enough fuel to change course and intercept.
Panel 3
A closer shot on Murphy, looking a bit pensive.
Murphy (thoughtsend): One thing bothers me: freighters tend to come with defensive lasers.
Murphy: This pockrocket is no assault craft. How do I get close enough to Kirchner to board her?
Panel 4
Medium close-up on Seamus, grinning an impish grin.
Seamus (thoughtsend): I suppose you'll just have to make friends with her.
Seamus: And here's how you'll do it ...
