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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Panel 1
Li is standing with Nigel and Buford, who are now back on their two legs. The Beltapes are each wearing a high-tech-looking version of the back-support girdles commonly worn by warehouse workers.
Li: Since Beltapes were engineered for working in low-gravity environments, and we don't have time for extensive surgery, these braces will help you stay upright on Terra.
Panel 2
Nicole approaches Li, who is still addressing the two Beltapes
Li: They will restrict your movement a bit, but that can't be helped.
Nicole: Uh, this gravity isn't doing my back much good, either.
Nicole: Can I get one of those back-braces?
Panel 3
Li pats Nicole on the cheek. She does not look happy.
Li: Sorry, sweetie, but the best thing for you is to let those steroids and nannites I gave you earlier do their work.
Li: Your body evolved in 9.8 gravs, after all. You'll be fine.
Panel 4
Pan the frame to include Murphy, who is looking impatient.
Murphy: Enough gabbing. We have a mad scientist to rescue.
Li: First, we have four days of intensive training, or we're the ones who will need rescuing.
