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. We Won.

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 1048

Panel 1
We see the frigate descending towards a military-looking compound. A city skyline in the distance.
Caption (Murphy): 'GENSAXWAL had tracked the frigate to a prison complex 70 klicks south of the city of Xi'an, in north-central China.'
Panel 2
Overview of the prison complex. A large building with four major wings surrounded by a few out-buildings, including a landing pad and hangar, and a perimeter wall dotted with guard towers. The perimeter is carved into the side of a large mountain.
Caption (Murphy): 'Móu Gòu Kòu Shèshī, a 'facility' built into the mountains above a remote village which is its namesake.
Caption: 'It is rumored to be a bio-weapons facility, but that is a ruse to keep the curious away.'
Panel 3
Featuring a schematic image of the central building.
Caption (Murphy): 'In fact it is a weapons facility, but not of that sort.
Caption: 'It is where Wokka-DNG-Hoy takes shanghaied scientists and forces them to develop a variety of advanced technologies.'
Panel 4
Back to Nicole and Murphy.
Nicole: Huh. The East Terrans are not generally known for advanced technology. They mostly copy everyone else.
Murphy: Yes, of course. You can't force creative genius.
Murphy: But this is a lesson Wokka-DNG-Hoy's executives can't seem to accept.
