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.
Transcript For Strip 1126
Panel 1Zander and Bok are in a corridor that looks more worn and seedy than in their own tower. They are next to a door that has a small peep-slot in it, and a pair of eyes are peering out at them.
Bok: What's good, master chef?
Eyes: Everything, warrior. Help yourself.
Panel 2
The doorman – a large kid, lets Bok and Zander in but stops Zander.
Doorman: Is that the head of Thraralaxus?
Bok: His mantle only.
Doorman: Okay, you guys pass.
Panel 3
Bok leads Zander through the den full of young people, drinking, smoking and gabbing in small groups. One of the boys waves to Bok.
Zander: You know all these people?
Bok: Some of them. Like Fang over there. Hey, Fang!
Zander: Wh- why is he called 'Fang?'
Panel 4
Zander and Bok are at a counter, where an assortment of bottles and drinking cups are arrayed. Bok is examining one of the bottles.
Bok: I dunno – maybe the same reason I'm called 'Bok' and not 'Bolivar.'
Zander: Can I have a cool nick-name?
Bok: What, you don't like 'Glasshoppa?'
Zander: Shut up.
Panel 5
Zander has a poured drink sitting on the counter in front of him, he's now pouring a glass for Zander from a different bottle.
Bok: Here, since you're not used to booze I'll mix you something light.
Zander: Can't I just have some fruit juice?
Bok: If you're gonna run in my circles ya gotta get acclimated, Zan ...
Voice (OP): Hey, Bok!
Panel 6
Bok and Zander turn to see a rough-looking girl confronting them.
Bok: Oh, hey, DeeDee.
DeeDee: Boney knows you're here, wants to talk to you.
DeeDee: Best not to keep him waiting.
