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 956
Panel 1Johanna: Little is known about the fugitive's activities and movements in Luna City after his arrival in 142 S.A. Presumably he completed his contract and proceeded to live quietly in the growing metropolis for about two decades. He is recorded as having been an early settler of Aldrinopolis in 163.
Panel 2
Johanna: Freeman was known to be an early participant in 'Project Flying Pig' which proposed to rehabilitate the failed L-5 research station as a viable space city. But funding issues placed the project on hold in 191 and he moved on to other interests.
Panel 3
Johanna: Chief among those was improving longevity technology. By 208 the fugitive was approaching 175 years of age, and his body was breaking down on a cellular level. Out of desperation, he agreed to some experimental treatments by a group based in Luna City which were as secretive as they were dangerous.
Panel 4
Johanna: Such recklessness nearly killed him. He began seizuring and was put into an induced coma. He would remain in a coma for 25 years as the rejuvenation team worked frantically to save his life.
